Morning SoCal!

Well I've got a couple of hours this morning before I have to head to the airport to head back out your way...figured I'd get a short FTE fix and then read the paper.

I was watching some of the Barett Jackson Auction from Costa Mesa yesterday...looks like I missed that!!!...some very nice cars crossed the block!

Have a great day everyone!

Joe.

Safe travels Joe. I flew from the east coast (China) to inner Mongolia today - nothin' but rain and delays. Nothin' a little Grouse won't fix though. Six hours on the road tomorrow -hoping for sun but forecast don't look good. I really hope the high temp of 46C is a typo!

Weather forecast in Chifeng : China

I looked the forecast over, and I believe you're right, Sean, the high temp is gonna' be a typo.

Happy Chinese'n!

Going anywhere else while you're in that neck-of-the-woods?

Maybe you could broker the deal, and have it shipped to Inner Mongolia?

Darn guy didn't bring a battery at all...we told him what car we had they automatically brought a flat bed and said they don't "service" batteries or other things on the hw an only tow.

From everyones consense of the problems, sayin an alternator. A friend has recommended a place called car works inc in Vegas and we are currently being towed to my uncles brothers house (brother in laws brother) to at least park the uhaal at and trouble shoot it better than on the side of the hw in the desert.

I sent out a distress to the Nevada members who had their lights on. Hopefully someone got ahold of you.
