Nice!

Mike,it looks like this little get together is going to be quite a bit larger than iniatially planned.
Looking bigger and better everyday!
Jim

My chances of going have improved. It is more likely I will move to NY, which is still well in range. A lot would have to happen between now and 'Fest so pls don't count me as official yet.

The kind who has added another place that's reasonable for WagonFest Mid-Atlantic and a cinch for future WagonFest NEs.

Have we gotten to the point yet that we can shorten these to WFMA and WFNE? The possible interpretations are endless.

Bone Stock: Meet cha in Harrisburg on friday. I'm being opimistic. Then you can get on our wagon train to Front Royal.

WTF?




Wagons, The Festival?

Gesh I was really liking the idea of making it WTCTCSTGTJTSWDAGAP

Wagons That Cross The Country Side To Get Together Just To Say We Did And Get A Plaque.

WFMA: Wagons F-ing Mopars Always

WFNE: Wagon Fun Never Ending

Thanks, I was hoping to fix up some imperfection on her (front bumper/rear roll-pan tiny cracks,wood-grain peeling , trim and the interior really needs a complete do over,did I mention I drive it DAILY , but the time is getting closer and closer to the 22nd.

The TPI Tuned Port Injection is no where near ready.I will say that the block is completely done I am waiting for the runners to come back from being Powered Coated/Ceramic.
The Shaved Woody will be going down with its tired 240,000 TBI LO5.

Mine is a daily driver too, and she has 220,000 on her as well. That is what makes our cars worth looking at.
I have a new motor for it just no time right now to install. I may wait for the winter to give her the heart and lung transplant.

What are the overnight temps like at Front Royal around Fest time?

Morning everyone. We're about a month away from the 'Fest now! I see quite a few new additions to those who may be joining us. At this point I need to get firm numbers so I can plan appropriate stuff for the Fest as well as let the restaurant know how many to expect for dinner.

So... look at the WF-MA details thread, stickied in this section. If your name isn't on the list or you're still a '?' for dinner, shoot me a PM so I can add you in.

BoneStock - Temps will vary but I would expect night time temps in the 40's to maybe into the mid-50's.

Daytime temps will likely be somewhere in the 60's.

Also, with all the rain we've had recently, I think we can expect some great fall colors this year. Weather for the next two weeks will largely determine when the change happens.

I've finished the cruise map and posted a link to it in the sticky thread. 45-ish minutes long through Browntown VA.

I still have a few '?' for dinner. I'll need to get numbers to the restaurant in a couple weeks so please check the thread and PM me with a count. Also if you're coming and not on the list let me know! I'm already buying food for the day Saturday and don't want to run out.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in a month!

I'm a definite no now.

I wouldn't rule out moving in the next few years, and the most likely states are NY. MD. & FL, all good states for getting to a future 'Fest. If things start going better for me maybe I can make it to whatever Bewbs may want to do.

Five years is a long time to go with no 'Fest. I'm antsy.

usually that antsy feeling manifests itself as a new wagon in your driveway

Hey, anyone coming that knows how to tune a '95? I have some programs I can load with my cable...but would love for someone to read polish up Jade. Might bring that wagon if so (still ugly as Sin though)

Not it.. limted to TPI stuff.

Although the concepts are the same, not the software.

That's exactly how I got the one in my garage. Flew to NY, took delivery from Fred, drove it to Fest & then home.

It doesn't help that I saw TWO beautiful RMWs in the same day a couple days ago, not to mention two BBB Impy SSs the day before and the sweetest black Roadmaster sedan yesterday.

Can't wait to get away

Looking forward to meeting all of you guys even Nick!Cant decide which wagon to drive up.
Never really had either on a trip but figure the 95 RMW will be more fun just not as nice
looking.It will have the SS wheels on it and hopefully the windows tinted by then.

A trip? If it is not over 4 hours it is only a commute or maybe it just me!!

Good idea Chris. A guy who really knows his stuff can sit with you and find out exactly what you want, your level of experience, the performance/drivability mix, how hard you want to be on your car, etc., then ride or drive with you and flash again if you want to fine tune it. I took that approach when I had my SS tuned, then again a year or two later when I wanted a harder edge.

Didn't let Nick fool you. He's a pussycat. An old truck driving, gear jammin, beer swillin, sailor-cussin pussy cat, but still a pussycat.

Thought wine was Nicks weakness.Cant believe these new tractors are automatics with computer
controlled jake brakes and NO trailer brake grab lever.Bet they are a blast on ice and snow!
Jim

It's looking like we are going to be able to join in after all.

Unlike WFNY, there is no Microtel previously established as the place to be.

Is there a particular place that's turning out to be where the majority will be staying?

Hampton / Holiday Inn / Recommendations?

TIA

- J

I am at the Holiday Inn.

The leaves are starting to change here. Looks like there will be some nice color for WF! Unfortunately that also means lots of traffic but that's okay.

I will be giving a dinner count to Casteriana's on Friday. So, if your name isn't on the list in the stickied thread, PM me this week so I can get an accurate count!

Wow is this gettign closer or what? I still have lots to do it get her road ready. Still haven't had time to finish my rims yet either.

Can anyone from the upstate NY area bring something back for me? Tim has a fender for my John Deere, and I'm hoping it can get a little closer to me...

Jason.

I can get it to NH, Jarod might be able to help you.

Tom

Jarrod doesn't have space for it. Tom, if you want to grab it, I'll pick it up next time I am down your way. Only if you have room, though. I feel like I have inconvenienced people enough with this.

This is what the part is. The sheetmetal for a lawn tractor. About the size of a folded chair.



Thanks, as always,
Jason.

Will there be anyone in the area of cape Charles Virginia this week.I'll be there till Sat and hoping to make it back for wagon fest va.for the next weekend.pm me a number
