Ignore (EOM)

Tru,

No way am I hauling the beast to the WSCB in Reno. To many great curvy roads between there and here. My main concern is finding gas statons as some of the roads go many miles to get you 50 miles. They follow old stage coach roads that wind all around the canyons as the horses couldn't pull the stages up over the mountains. I could use a small pick up around here from time to time as once in a while I have to get stuff that I can't haul in the car. If I were going to take the Cobra a long distance, it would actually be cheaper for me to have it hauled by one of the car hauling companies and them have them come bring it back when I am through. That way I wouldn't be paying taxes, weight fees, insurance, and registration on something that just set 98% of the time. Years ago I had a huge composite triple axeltrailer with all the goodies including six wheel electric brakes. I think I used it twice. It was costing me over $900 a year in fees and taxes just to have it setting here. So I sold it to a friend of mine that drag races. It had built in tool boxes, work bench, generator, and fuel racks. Electric lift on the front to raise and lower it.

Having Mike weld up a frame sounds like a good project for him. Just tell him to make sure it is squared and not in the rectangle shape that one guy here did. He had a devil of a time trying to get everything to fit.

Our weather is great except for a very hard and cold wind that has blown day and night the past three days. Really has my sinuses in a mess. Other wise I would be out driving the Cobra. I should take the 69 out but I don't want to ruin those 36 year old tires and I don't have any more wheels right now to put new tires on. Oh, the frustration of decisions. I think I am going to pull the women thing and go shopping and spend money. I want to go browse the Sears tool department today and see if they have a couple of things that I saw in the book that I am interested in.
