(this usually leads to plot twists...) I'm not sure if I have this completely correct, or solidified yet, but here we go: 1) he's coming home in a few months... bringing the '74 Javelin and Jimmy home, buying an XJ from his friend... 2) current thought is for him to sell me the Jimmy for the 6.2L Diesel for SuperDawg, as part of the convulted deal, he gets the '91 360 out of Omega for his Javelin, and then he sells the 460/C6 out of the Javelin. 3) then we put something in the Jimmy or part it out... So, Omega gets the 6.2L this summer, comes home soon, I hope, will research a tank heater for the aux tank so I can run veggie oil in him. Superdawg looks to be getting the same color as the '99 WJ, Curtis brought a Tonka up this weekend painted as such, looks great. The '68 Jeepster is going to go away... The '48 CJ-2A continues to get some attention. :) I'm horsetrading with another friend to swap the T-90, and install the new top on my '48 CJ-2A... The Jeepster has an interested party, but he hasn't called or shown up yet... my fear is I'll actually have to do some repairs. :) The '91 300D is due for motor mounts, brakes, a/c service and a speedo cable lube... The '99 WJ may be our ride to the midwest this weekend... just talked to Jim Startup, bringing Shadowfax over there by 11am... need a ride back to my office though. :) john ---- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** http://JohnMeister.com **** http://wagoneers.com ** Snohomish, Washington USA - where Jeeps don't rust, they mold ** http://freegift.net *** http://greatcom.org/laws/languages.html ** - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2006 21:33:43 -0700 From: "Jim Blair" Subject: fsj: Re: Wanted jeep console Those are pretty rare in the full size rigs.
