I live so far North you'd need dog sleds to get up here ;) Nobody will meet me.

Although I do know there are a few Albertans on this board.

Thats great, i hope you can make that trip. I'm a little surprised some of you have not at least met the capt. yet.  Then again your the only response thus far.  I almost met frotosride up in maine, he hooked me up with that spare tire carrier, but he was out of town so he left it for me to pick up.  I did get to see his blue truck though, real nice! I hope others respond. Some of you guys post back and fourth like you've been friends for years.

If it ever works out I'm going to try to hook up with Zieg while he is in the Gateway city.

May have to schedule a stop in Birmingham on my next trip through there to meet Capt if he still has any of the original rear wheel trims for the 89~91 Blazers.

I met Choptop in Texas and saw his collection of extended cabs as well as Novadiecast.  Yes I plan on meeting Engineer once I get settled.

Yes, Vile, thats the guy!! He's like 10 minutes down the road from me.  I live on the ma/ct border. My office is in tolland, ct.  I'll have to visit him soon, probably see him at the big swap meet in the spring.

I haven't, but not many have cause to come to Kirksville unless they are attending Truman State or ATSU, (or have kids who are) and on the occasions I travel, I'm usually either on a tight time table or enroute to some of my wife's family. I'd love to have to time while traveling to stop and visit..it might happen when I get my 76 done and my camper ('69 forester) at least mostly done.

I live in northern Alberta, about 6 hours from the NTW border LOL now there is where the dogsleds would come in handy!

Philobeddoe,
I'm in Mass, 20 minutes south of Boston.
Next time I head to to western Mass, I'll give you a shout.
My M1028 came from East Brookfield Ma, out you way.

I'm more of casual pats fan. For me, its all about going to the game and tailgating  with family & friends.   I certainly enjoy the game, but im not the type that can quote the statistics of every player.
