Well folks in 2 days, we'll be loaded up, and we are Florida bound!


Finally finished fixing up what needed attention on the camper, I still don't have a tranny cooler on it....

The one I wanted is out of stock after a second phone call, and will be a week before getting another one, so can't wait, I got 1 more place to go see tomorrow, place called Performance Radiators. And if they don't have something that will be good for me, off I go without one, I'll get one along the way in the States, alot cheaper there anyways


We'll be zig zagging down to Florida, and come back up by the east coast all the way back up.


Only got a month this year. We should be doing around 8-10k km (5-6k miles) in 4 weeks.



We'll be cruising at 55mph this year, just to try and see how much mpg we gain from previous years of 60mph.



I hope everyone has a nice summer!




Oh, and if anyone by any chance gets stuck behind us on a hill, don't be shy to give a push!







-- And since we'll be in the sunny rust free belt.... we'll be on the hunt for a parts truck for a real mint cab If i'm lucky enough to find a whole truck, I'll rent a flat bed U-haul for a 1 way trip, and tow it back up here!

 

are you coming through montana

 

Been through Montana last summer, it's about 2000 miles west of me. lol

 

haha I would hope so! I wish he would have done it when I was home. I look forward to home once again. Jayme I called my brother and he said he will get to work on the IP and Injectors

 

aune (Quintin) Like i said they are sold. I might even just take a day a drive to missoula to visit old friends and get the parts. let me know when they are ready. I really appreciate this. Hope i can help you in the near future

 

you commin down through ohio?

 

you rollin through North Carolina by chance

 

I guess that means vancouver island is off the list this time around too...







Just kidding, have fun and may the power of the IDI never fail you!

 

Well now the "power" has never been impressive, but the reliability never failed me


Most likely be going through both Carolinas, Ohio, not sure, depends witch route we take.


I'd like to go through PA as the IDI Rally will be going on over from Oilburners, and if I follow I-81 down PA I'll drive right by it, so i'm gonna stop in for a day if we do.

 

if your commin down I75 stop in im right off the 118 in the big ol city of cridersville...lol

 

Point it the other way, you won't sweat near as much and I will load you up with a slick 87 cab. lol

 

Well folks, were loaded up, ready to pull out, just printing some final potential parts truck along the way.

Got 17 printed so far


Have a good month of July everyone!

 

Have a safe trip man, and good luck with your parts hunt

 

i think the odds are in your favor of finding a nice cab John lol! soon that convertible idi bricknose will be a hardtop once again.
have a nice trip! looking forward to the pics again this trip!

 

Well made it back 5 hours ago. And towed my self some goodies from Florida to
