Looking forward to it--if you're into '02s, this is THE place to be.  Do not miss this.  Should be the largest ever with the '02's 50th anniversary this year.

 

We're working on a big caravan from Dayton to Eureka Springs, departing on 25 April with an overnight stop in Paragould AR.  PM me for details and to be added to the caravan mailing list.  

 

Bo, what do the 2018 shirts look like?

Where are you driving from?  If you can caravan, you will have a slew of experienced '02 mechanics ready to jump in and help your car make it.

 

Truth.

 

Here are Daniel & Skip replacing my water pump in 2015.

That would be CT. Pittsburgh has been our goal but this event looks somehow more... friendly or something. Can't put my finger on it except for scope. Reliable (hopefully) reassembly taking place now in unheated garage but it's doable. Not sure we have Andrew's indomitable road trip spirit but will see. Thanks for encouragement.
