Billings? Rapid City? Cheyenne? Anyone?
I don't like it when Colin recounts for me his straight-through drive across a third of the damn continent. It makes me skeered for the poor kid's sanity.
In other news, there's a non-zero chance that we'll've moved to Livingston MT (133 miles closer to Spearfish, 133 miles further from Missoula) by the time of our appointment.Amskeptic wrote:4/1 Deposit Deadline Countdown Commences - Deposit Deadline is 30 Days Before Your Scheduled Appointment

Re: 2015 Itinerary upd 04/20
The journey begins. This is quite an accomplishment, serving our changing needs these many years. The Itinerant Timeline covers an era of great changes-from a lot of daily drivers with access to still original parts, to todays mostly "special occasion" drivers or restorers of our great air cooled vehicles. Original parts are few and far between, and we are faced with a flood of cheap, mostly Chinese imports that serve only to frustrate us. For those of us that truly care about our vehicles, our need to have Colin as a resource and spokesperson for us becomes increasingly more important. As Colin begins this year's tour, I wish him safe travels, and thank him for his passion in helping us keep our aging, wonderful vehicles on the highways.

Re: 2015 Itinerary upd 05/09
Hey Colin,
Got my valves adjusted, drove about 5 miles, shifts great up and down, letting the oil and tranny drain overnight. Refilling with 20w-50 and 80w respectively. Still have not found the intermittent banging when driving. Brakes are good, ordered a Dakota digital CHT. Soon as I have found the banging noise I am going to start interior refinish. Will try to get the 2l with the fuel injection ready and if I can I will maybe see you again in the fall. Thanks for a great visit.
