I’m in no rush. I can shoot for the annual gathering , so long as the weather allows passage. Maybe we can see how it goes? I would much rather drop in on an annual event than it occur on my account. Your hospitality is epic!😊 However it might not be a long visit due to drive time requirements, squeezing a long trip into a weekend is time intensive. I probably should yake a friday or monday off for safety, so i should plan ahead. So weather and all considered, could be like plannin a picnic in blizzard season cuz yanever really know whats comin’😉

No I am a "Troll". I live south of the bridge near Toledo Michigan. I really think Reb should fly in to Detroit and I can pick him up. We should make a event out of it! We could call it Reb's Nationals or something. LOL! Toledo Michigan?!

There was even a war over it! michiganology.org/stories/toledo-michigan-2/

Cool history lesson! But unless the spudtruck has a flux capacitor to go back to 1836 and buy a map to Toledo MI, just call it Ohio like anyone else from the last 185 years does lol. 😁

oldmimap_9675_7 by Joe Pinsoneault, on Flickr Here, let me post this uber modern map before Rick does. I hope this helps Spud find his way to Rick's house. Only problem is, Rick doesn't live in Toledo, MI. He's just outside of quaint little Blissfield, Ohio. Happy trails.

I55, I57, I80, I94 near Chicago is an open shooting gallery. No bias as to where you're from. Cook county is like sport fishing. Catch and release. Arrest, take their gun, let them go and repeat the process.

No respect. I just get no respect from you guys. LOL! OK Spudinski, all's I know is if you come this way with a empty truck we will do our best to fill it up. I have at least 2 free 304 blocks and even 2 more if you want them. I think I paid like $20.00 a cylinder head for 304 heads so, you can have all of those you want for exactly what I paid for them. I imagine n20Joe and javetwotone has some stuff that you could take back with you as well.

Umm i might wanna borrow a bigger truck. My s-10 starts riding on the bumpstops with that kinda pork. Free blocks? Are they ok for a rebuild? Or are they on crack?

They are the ones that I showed you pictures of. I was just going to cobb the crank out of the green one to rebuild a 360 with. Or, I can let the crank go with it for a hundred bux or so. I also have (2) complete 1972 304's that are just sitting there. I think I have 2 new sets of 304 pistons as well. How about some cracked 360 cylinder heads! I have a few of those to choose from.

Alrighty then i need a bigger truck and more money just in case i find more treasures to haul home. I guess about now jim landis will try to lure me into illinois with his stash of 304 spudbait. Looks like its 16 hour trip thru souther illinois or a 16.5 hour trip through tennessee kentucky and ohio… a lot less construction through illinois… crap. Illinois is a mask state … and i got texas plates… i bet google dont account for getting pulled over twenty times. Decisions decisions. And im such a procratinator. Better go state hiways and forget the interstates? More freeze on them though? Shit🤨
