After almost 2 years ....

Post by RADDOX »

I made it back to Idaho from Texas for a couple of days last week. Before I left in January of 2011 (It was 32 below that day) I drained her out and oiled the cylinders putting the plugs back in.
So I go in the garage, which no one has been in since I left, and am pleased to find all the tires still up. and except for some dust just like I left her. Figure the batteries are dead but what the hell....Hook everything back up and away she cranks !! Hell siren is loud and strong !!!
None the less it was bittersweet as I'm back in Dallas and it looks like Im heading to SoCal as soon as this is done in Nov. SIGH! At least while Im here I drive by two M's in a backyard so if nothing else I can look !!!

Raddox,

Good to hear from you. Glad you got to have that reunion with your rig. I bet you had a nice big smile :D
