Oh yeah...

We made it! Mike D and I scooted up to Sacramento Saturday to pick up the Combustion Van and weren't overly confident when ol' boy showed up with it. Not only was he 5 hours late to the meeting, but he was saying the Ujoints were going out and thought it would be best if we trailered it home. Great one genius... It's 6pm on Sunday and you expect us to find a trailer? Plus, Mike's Truck wouldn't stand a chance of towing the beast over the Grapevine, so we just manned up and jammed back.

I'll have more time to go through it this week, but I'm pretty sure dude had no idea what he was talking about. Not a single strange shimmy or shake to her in my opinion. Blasted the whole way back at around 70-80MPH and it just hummed right along. More updates as we start decking her out. '73 Ford Econo 100 Long box. She's a beaut!

Welcome home!


More pics of the trip to come once I actually get some sleep. Got back and in bed around 3 this morning and am fighting through work as it is... Great seeing the Sacto crew! Buddy, Darin, James, Mike, Steve and the bunch put on a great neighborhood fire and shit shooting party! Thanks boys!
