Jeff--Are you planning to show any video of the Quaaazy-8s' 'wheeling adventures at the Spring Reunion? It'd be great to see some clips on a large screen.

I'm not sure. Qwaazy 8's antics get mixed reaction at the reunions. Some think it's cool, .... some ... not so much. Can I assume you are coming?

BTW, its Qwaaazy 8's. Only a sane person would put a "u" after a "q"

Yes, I'll be there. If you're taking votes, I support at least a short run of Qwaaazy-8 off-road videos.

Congratulations to our transmission rebuild clinic winners! Our own Damar2yxr and a guy from port Clinton, Ohio have won the right to sit at the table with Joe Deyoung to rebeuild their t90s. We have master kits from Novak and a transmission shop right down the road that is going to clean everything up.

I know all of you guys are just green with envy! But you will get to watch the whole process. And who knows? Maybe next year you can bring your Dana 18 along for a rebuild!

GREEN for sure.  LOL

Congrats Dave!
 
On the plus side -> I do not have to find the time to pull a T-90 from a project Jeep in next couple weeks,  and find a 2nd gear that does not have some rust on it.

Can I meet up somewhere closer to the trail head?  My plan is to spend the night with my mother in Oakland MD on Weds night.   It appears that Cabela's in WV might be going too far west,  only to re-trace my steps?
 
ie.  from Oakland, MD where would be best place to meet,  at what time?   I will plan to get there early, so that the group does not have to wait for me.

Thank you, Thank you. I’d like to first thank the academy for this award. I’m not worthy. I would then like to thank all the little people, the minions who helped make it all possible. I will not dishonor this in any way. Winner, Winner, chicken dinner.

I don't remember what time we met last year.   0900 sounds good to me. Went down to the farm today and did a some trail clearing. Not as slick as last year, but still pretty wet. We'll have to play it by ear as to which trails to take. I also got several passes mowed in the field before it started raining. Should be enough room to park a number of trailers.

'79 CJ7

And two of them actually run!
