Here's an SA (looks like an '80 LS) in Gainesville that is getting parted out. Perhaps someone could use parts or might want the whole thing:

Since my flat tire on the way to the meeting Tuesday night I'm in the market for some new tires for my 1984 GSL. Any recommendations?

Thanks for the head's up Kent, sad that one is headed for the crusher.

Greg here's a very nice riding, highly rated tire with an 85,000 mile warranty, $54 each. I have a set on the Silver One that I got for about that price from a shop in Athens, they are a lot like the Yokohama Avid Tourings I had before that gave me 150,000 miles+.

These Sumitomo's might be a good deal too:

Yo Kevin, you're sounding like a liberal. Get your butt back down here where you belong.

If anyone's gonna be close to Buford / Jeffrey's this weekend, I need a hand moving two engines around. I've got to take one off the engine stand and move another from the pallet in the back of my truck to the stand. Someone had borrowed my engine hoist, and it's not a 1-man lift kind of thing.

Likewise Crit, I can't make it down, too swamped with projects. Unless we could do it after work during the week sometime next week? I have a come along, the type with the flat nylon belt, I've used for pulling my engines, if you have some kind of overhead to attach it to it works well.

They should have put a 12A in the RX-8 and removed the back seat, IMHO.

Whoa, Mayo and I both moved North and bought Fords! WTF

Miss you guys... Miss the FC, but don't *really* miss Wanda in particular.. I'm perfectly happy with being able to rocket from 70 to 110 in like half a second.. That's an exaggeration, but eh. lol

Might wash it tomorrow and take some real pics with a real camera.. so.. maybe..


Ray, no snow.. yet..

There's a chance we might take the CVPI to Georgia for Christmas rather than the CR-V, so... you guys might actually be able to see it in person! Regardless, I'll let you guys know the date I'll be arriving/leaving when I get them.

Will do Ben, could we meet up at lunch time? If you are up for some Chinese maybe we could put together a Power Lunch at the Hunan, get some of the other OGTA's to stop by.

Do you mean the bike part or the 50mpg part?

I can be there at 12:15, if that works. Any other takers?

I don't think you'll find us lining up to look at the Vic.
