read the fine print sir, I said I'd pass the hat... :-)
I don't get much of an allowance... I may pass the hat a second
time for my tank... :-) the only reason I might have deep pockets is
cause they have holes in 'em...
The Pizza at Alfy's is quite reasonable and they do have unlimited
grazing at the salad bar if pizza ain't yer dish... so this trip
shouldn't bust the budget too badly... :-)
besides, I'm already covering the film expense... that way your
stories will have some pictures... we'll let you go down the boat
launch at the Snohomish River and get a picture of the wake...

I did not say that the chrysler was the same as the MSD, just that the result was the same only at a higher price. I don't want a overkill ignition because I don't want to keep changing my coil and ign. wires all the time. I also don't want my ignition to fire before TDC, on TDC and After TDC. I just want it to fire at the ignition timing I choose for my engine. Frank Norway[Back to Top]

SUBJECT: 83 Jeep stepside
Hello
This weekend I saw an advertisement in the paper for an 83 Jeep
stepside 4x4. It has a 360, automatic, air, tilt, new paint, and new
31" tires. It is yellow. I have not seen the truck yet, but the way
the guy is describing it, it is pretty clean. He is asking $2350 OBO.
I am not sure how much this truck should be going for. Could anyone
please let me know what an example price would be. I will look at this
truck before the weekend and most likely get it. I may just sell it or
keep it as a tow vehicle. I am not sure yet.
TIA

I just read the last of the 3 installments (still available at my

of performance did they end up with? What do our experienced rebuilders on
this list think they should end up with for performance based on the parts
they used - Edelbrock cam kit, manifold, carb, etc.

However, The Two other FSJs in my club both made it including Miles in the

The Photographer that took these pics was a freelance and sells the

Hey Jeep persons...
What a wonderfool weekend, didnt get a fourth
of what I wanted to get done, but a bad day
out is better than a good day in!! Took
vacation Friday and Tuesday so 3 turned into
5.(Is that why there were almost 500 offerings
from the list in my mailbox this AM???) I love it...
I tried to email Allen Lundgren, the only
Texan that was a charter member of the FSJlist
and it didnt bounce and it hasnt been returned...
Allen, are you out there sumwars??
I finally got the confindence built up to drive my
Wag to work today. Actually had to because my son
Chad blew the motor out of his Ramcharger and I had
to loan him my Ramcharger to use for some work he is
doing for me this week. It did well, although I have
a leak in the overflow tube on the gas tank.
I heard from Jeff Gunn, alive and well and unwilling
to get rid of his beloved Cherokee no matter how many
'vettes are in his possesion. He will be getting a new
email address in a couple of weeks, and will hopefully
get back on the list...
Later.....

Subject: Engineering Definitions...
For all you engineering types, AND the
mechanical engineers too. :)
SOME GOOD ENGINEERING MATERIAL
TOP Twenty-One Engineering Definitions
1. A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT APPROACHES ARE BEING TRIED
We have no idea how we are going to do it.
2. AN EXTENSIVE REPORT IS BEING PREPARED FOR A FRESH APPROACH TO
THE PROBLEM
We just hired three kids right out of college.
3. CLOSE PROJECT COORDINATION
We know who to blame.
4. A MAJOR TECHNOLOGICAL BREAKTHROUGH
It works okay, but looks very high tech.
5. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION IS ASSURED ON DELIVERY
We are so far behind schedule the customer will be happy to get
it delivered.
6. PRELIMINARY OPERATIONAL TESTS WERE INCONCLUSIVE
The thing blew up when we turned it on.
7. TEST RESULTS WERE EXTREMELY GRATIFYING
We're surprised the thing works.
8. THE ENTIRE CONCEPT WILL HAVE TO BE ABANDONED
The only person who understood the thing quit.
9. IT'S STILL IN PROCESS
It's so wrapped up in red tape that the situation is hopeless.
10. WE'LL LOOK INTO IT
Screw it! We have enough problems for now.
11. PLEASE READ AND INITIAL
Let's spread responsibility around for the screw up.
12. GIVE US THE BENEFIT OF YOUR THINKING
We'll listen to what you have to say as long as it doesn't
interfere with what we've already done.
13. GIVE US YOUR INTERPRETATION
I can't wait to hear this crap!
14. SEE ME, LET'S DISCUSS IT
Come into my office, I'm lonely.
15. ALL NEW
Parts not interchangeable with the previous design.
16. RUGGED
Too heavy to lift!
17. LIGHTWEIGHT
Lighter than RUGGED.
18. YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT
One finally works.
19. ENERGY SAVING
Savings are achieved when the power switch is off.
20. LOW MAINTENANCE
If it breaks it's fried.
21. IT'S UNDER INVESTIGATION
I've had such a small amount of work to do lately that I've been
blowing that particular project off, and I'm just here screwing
around!

We decorated my husbands ford fairliane years ago. the trannie was going bad on it so he figured what the kronk why not spray paint it. we did a gruesome job! but actually it increased the vehicles value. a local fairlain junky who wanted it as a parts car thought it was great. cause he could have a chance to drive a real art car around until it died, then he could use the parts, and he wasn't sure that he wouldn't get attached to it and fix it up after all. sorry, my tounge got set off it's hinges again:) Alisa[Back to Top]

Hanson (hanstr-at-cimsys01.aud.alcatel.com) If you insist. It's more of a tale of missed opportunity. A few years ago, my wife was driving the Wagoneer regularly to work. The headmistress at the school also drove a '67 Wagoneer. The other Wagoneer was in need of a paint job and the students volunteered. I don't know what kind of paint they used, but it was applied with brushes. It didn't look too bad from a distance. Just a couple of years ago, she sold the Wagoneer. I asked her about it, and she said, "Oh, I should have asked if you wanted it." Which I did. Tim Cowden '67 Wagoneer[Back to Top]

Driving home a coupla weeks ago my 2 year old Kenwood radio abruptly quit playing! Everything seemed to work, tuning, cassette, seek etc. but no sound. Took out the glove box and plugged the line level out into a boombox and it played fine. So I assume that the built in amp is out and go out and buy a new Kenwood 1 step up. Hook it up to the old pigtail and ..... Nothing! Turns out there was a speaker wire with striped insulation and it was touching the body. Kenwood has a protect circuit that would not let the amp come on. Soooooo Anybody want to buy a Kenwood KRC-2006 ( or is it KCR?) anyway its a great radio - AM/FM 18 station preset, seek, auto reverse cassette, bass & treble. 15 Watts x4, or 25 watts x2. preamp out, everything except CD-Control(like my NEW one). Paid $229.00 new, ship to ya for $75.00. Fits FSJ perfectly! ( Note the FSJ content). Even give you new wiring harness since I used the old one on the new radio.] Jeff Herbst 1982 Wagoneer LTD Texas[Back to Top]
