Wheeling on Sunday june 24th

[Coppertop]

Thinking about wheeling on sunday the 24th.I'm opened to three locations.BigRock,Haspin,or Dirty Turtle.

Who's interested??
Nick

[WrenchMonkey]

I'd totally be up for that, I'm WAY overdue...

The 24th would give me two weeks to get my tire thing sorted out. 'Course, I've been fighting with em since the CORE Tour in NOVEMBER, so we'll see! :mad:

You know I'll vote against Haspin, but if I can go, I can go anywhere...

Robert

[tjrider]

Ill put 1 up for DTOR

[cincygman]

Would somebody please take Jeff to the Turtle? LOL I would be up for either one.

[Runoveru2]

Count me in as well, I wouldn't mind headin out to Haspin, haven't been there in a while. Nick make sure you pack the garage in your jeep again, I feel much better about doing trail repairs when you do that. If you don't have it in your jeep then we don't need it. jammin

[Coppertop]

I'm game to what ever location.Of course,Spare parts will be available...

Upon request......:D

Nick

[frankensteinxj]

I may be in. Depends on this coming weekend if the xj falls apart or not. lol
Big rock is pretty mild so I shouldnt have it destroyed..... hopefully :D

[NKYJEEPSTER]

I d be up for a trip to the turtle its been awhile.

[AidaJK11]

If this ends up at Haspin I might be game...let me know.

[Coppertop]

At this point,It's looking like either Haspin or Dirty Turtle.

Nick

[tjrider]

Looks like I'm out, pending the outcome of my future legal battle

[Coppertop]

Bummer....Good Luck in the Fairfeld Kangaroo Court.

Nick

[Runoveru2]

So its confirmed haspin or dirty turtle???

[Coppertop]

Jim,It's looking like Haspin..I was waiting on a few to chime in that I talked to
on the phone.

Nick

[xplorer55]

As mich as I'm. Not a haspin fan its super close to me so gas wouldn't be a issue and they let veterans in for free...so if its haspin I'm down for sure

[WrenchMonkey]

they let veterans in for free...

Hell, didn't know that. They owe me about $300 in refunds...

Robert

[frankensteinxj]

Never been to haspin.
Always heard it wasnt worth the gas to get there.

[Coppertop]

Trust me,we will have a good time...

Nick

[Coppertop]

Weather is looking dry all week.The wheeling should be good.How's 10:00 am meet up ,just inside the gate sound?For those with CB radios we will run channel 12.

Nick

Members....check the member forum. Just FYI

[Red Dog]

Hey would love to go but i need to be shotgun with somebody. Anybody got an empty seat. Due to the fact that I'm not allowed to wheel in my rig any more.:(

[cincygman]

Hey I got an empty seat but was thinking about going Sat. night and camping but you can ride shotgun when ever you want. So you coming out there or looking to ride along from the super slab?

[Coppertop]

Members....check the member forum. Just FYI

[cincygman]

Still not sure about camping, depends on how Sat. goes but since my wife wont be in town, I don't have to feel bad about camping without her. :D

Nick, if I don't camp, I'll call ya about running out there together.

[frankensteinxj]

I may show up and check haspin out since I've never been.

I am going back to big rock saturday for a day trip.

Maybe we'll leave big rock in the evening and go to camp at haspin saturday night? :eek:

[Coppertop]

Sounds like a plan..:thumbup:

Looks like if Glass Masters can get the windshield out and rebond it ,the cost is 100.00.To replace the windshield 180.00.

Anyone have any experience with glued in windshields?

I had to replace the sliding rear window in my truck. It was glued in just like a windshield. It cost $25 for the glue from Advance auto. If it will come the rest of the way out easily, then you could give it a shot.

[AidaJK11]

Looks like you guys had a blast...wish I could've been able to make it.

Not a bad idea..If,I can get the top to break loose without breaking the glass.Napa sells a 3M product named Window Weld for 21.99.
