Just more humid!
Congrats on the journey of over a 1,000 miles Justin. The summers will be much cooler than in TX.
ChrisJustin, that's awesome that you are in Columbus! I'm 2 hours north of National Trails. I hope this means that I'll finally get to see that GTX in person at the Nats and possibly Carlisle...

MarkOhio??!!??!! Round on the sides and hi in the middle lol. I grew up south of Cincy in N Ky and can't say I miss the weather but I'm glad you are close to family now and that's what matters. And you are right next door to the MoparNats Glad the move went well.
....have you had Skyline Chili? A little different than Texas chili but something I always crave.
Mark
next time all I will do is point a finger....lol....
You'll point for everything...........except the GTX.Mark
Thanks my friend! We finally finished the last box and filled a storage unit, lol.....
Everything went very well but realistically, I have no interest doing this again.....it's a big task.....next time all I will do is point a finger....lol....
Thanks for the info on the chili. I will have to try that.....
Justin
I will represent my Pops and the members here well.....without him and the support base here, I am not sure how things would have turned out.....Justin pointed me to this thread. Great story and even greater car. Best of luck in November!! Represent Justin!!!
So sorry about your Dad. R.I.P.
I will represent my Pops and the members here well.....without him and the support base here, I am not sure how things would have turned out.....
I cannot thank all you guys here enough....some members I will see in person at the show and for the ones that cannot make it....well.....there will be some video action for them to view
Thank you for the compliments IB!
What Justin is cryptically saying is that he couldn't have done it without me. He knows what an influence I am and he simply, and kindly, didn't want to put me on the spot.
And now you know the rest of the story. Carry on.
@Varangi Can you explain why you disagreed with this post?This unit does not have a date stamp. Typically they are on the large rivet or on the end in front of the 2 studs in the middle. The large rivet has a distinct look and they way it was pressed on. They guys restoring this and taking them apart use an incorrect large rivet and a incorrect release rod rivet!

###Anyone notice the RIVET on the release arm?###
The outfits that redo these units use a standard rivet and are not correct. The original type is no longer available. It has a smooth round head and pressed on, see pic above. I have a little trick to share here. Save your old one and attach the rod with a rivet. The grind the rivet head a little bit and grind the stud on the original one off....A little epoxy and wallah, original again!!!
747Holy cow I drop in to see if there's been any developments to find your now a fello Ohioan!!! Your about 2 hours away which means I'll get to check out that sweet ride in person and possibly see you at the Nats. If your ever headed up 77 in my neck of the woods let me know, you're welcome to stop by. So did I miss exactly what brought you here, what new gig did you land?
