May Rubicon trip

[wetoolowdingbangow]

Camping at Loon the first night is fine with me, I'm in no rush personally. I wouldn't mind throwing a line in the water and tipping back a few beers at Loon on Friday afternoon/evening

Exactly!! My dog will be beside herself if she sees water and cant swim so it works out best i think. Im thinking ill want to take a jerry can just in case. Georgtown is probably the last place to fill up.

I'll pack 5 gallons but I shouldn't need it.

 

[wetoolowdingbangow]

Sounds good ill bring a 5 gal too. Just in case we need to burn a jeep for warmth.

[wetoolowdingbangow]

Do it! We need more chevys!

 

[skunked]

[bmxbryant9]

Yes! i've got a friend im trying to convince to semi build his 74 chev

 

[wetoolowdingbangow]

Awesome! Sounds like so far their will be 3 or 4 chevys and 3 toyotas

It's a decent list but all the parts are either sitting in the garage or on order. I'll be ready...

Interco M16's

Nice ive heard good things about those. There were 7 of them for $300 on cl in chico. I almost bought them!

Well I might be out, I'm hopefully getting a job working for coca cola and with my school schedule they will have me working weekends. Hopefully I will be able to make it this trip though. If not I will be going sometime this summer. the blazer is still good, swapping rear springs.
