was in Uwharrie all last weekend with some rovers and a baby jeep (waggy, isn't ready yet,) had a blast. They filled in the first part of Daniel and flattened it out a lot. I got back and started chopping my rockers for rock sliders......gonna be a fun weekend!

We will be there! With any luck, will have the new-to-us 77 J-10 and my YJ mutt in tow. Thrilled I am actually in the country for this year's event!
One day I will wake up and realize that my jeep is complete...one day, I just know it.

Would love to have you down. I had to come back home last night, but my boy and me are headed back out in about 30 minutes to hang out with the guys. Had some rain yesterday so the trails should be very interesting today.

Well, it's all over now and I wanted to let everyone know I really enjoyed meeting and spending time with all of you. It was the first time i had gone wheeling in a long time (since the mid 90's) and the first time iv had the old iron out. What a swell group of folks. :D Now I have to get busy so I'll have it back for the next time in the fall.

It was a good event, very layer back. People had issues getting there this year. Tyler's tow rig was missing bad and just did make it. Shawn got rear ended, he's OK but the left rear quarter panel took a hit. And Rod fell while loading his truck and broke his arm. We only had few problems on the trails so all was good. I had a great time and thanks to Tyler I learned a lot about a 5.4 Ford coils and spark Gus! LOL

I know you did Jim. I had no idea about how those things work. Sometimes I have a hard enough time with a distributor. LOL Did Tyler get his truck straightened out?

Yes, he got it figured out around midnight last night. He made it home with no problems. Sorry I was jumping around so much when you were down, hope you and your son had a good time.

Made it back to Bragg. I can't thank SurfWagoneer's buddies enough for bringing the Mutt back for me so I didn't have to try flat-towing it with the J10 again. Once was enough!

We had a great time and will be planning for the Fall. Thanks for letting the little jeep play with the grown ups!
