I sent an email to mom and grandma with a link to where I was staying in Blackwell and just got an email back from mom that I thought was pretty interesting..........

GGM (my grandmother) says that is where her grandmother and Aunt lived. Her Uncle was a chriopratrator there. Grandma's name was Margaret Welch. She was a Webb before she married.


My grandmother is from Kansas not too terribly far away from where Burdie lives. Now I even know some family history from where I am staying too! YAY

Hello to all you guys and gals going on this hunt,

That looks like it will be sooooooo much fun with everything considered. Getting to meet each other personally like that
and hunting together will be so memorable. I really wish I could join you, but since I can't, I'm wishing all of you to
just have a ball and a lot of great finds. Will look foreward to seeing about a bazillion pics.

Again, best of luck to you all,

Ray karenray08

Scrounger,

I can't believe you would let something like your brakes being out stop you. You know you have an emergency brake!!! If you get on interstate, heck man, you only have to stop once at Caldwell and you'll have miles to coast to a stop. It sounds like you don't want to show us up with that new detector!!! You were one of the reasons I was coming to watch you work your new toy! I think you need to re-think your brake situation. That emergency brake will do all the braking you could ever need! :3some: I AM SICK ABOUT IT BUT IT JUST WONT DO

Re-think your situation now!!

Steve ;D

looks like i will have fo join noodle in wishing u well from afar.i spent today working on a backup vehicle i have here but hasnt been out in a year plus.no go.best wishes all

Scronge,I drove a '53 buick with metal to metal brakes from Petaluma,CA to KC,MO.And ,yes,coming down the mountains was an experience,I don't know what held that transmission together and I had the wife and babies in there with me.Sold it the 1st day in KC.The linings were completely gone.Come on now,be adventurous!
LOTS OF THINGS IVE DONE.i am adventurous. howbout driving a car for 2 yrs that had no reverse. or i went 4 mos without a starter. parked downhill only and coast started. have slept in my trunk. no horn.no wipers.NO PROBLEM .an old pickup where the steering wheel came off in your hands if u werent real careful.i havent had to do most of this lately. back when i was single. i really think i could do it . wife sez ABSOLUTELY NOT ! I MIGHT even have over ridden her but for some reason its affected the brake lights too. TODAYS POLICE ARE INCOME ORIENTED. one is sure to notice no brake lights.i worked all day today on another car i have but couldnt get it running. maxmoney is giving me aride to a one day chicago hunt. i might have rented but my SPLURGE MONEY GOT SPENT ON THE E TRAC. I DIDNT BUY IT FOR SHOW OFF PURPOSES but for what it can find.however it would have been very fun for us all to play with. the hunt im going to 2 other people have etracs.so itll be nothing special there. i am not abandoning u just because other hunt closer.rather because of trouble i cannot come there and someone gives me a ride to other hunt at last minute.i will try and forget pain of not coming there by hunting elsewhere. i have lived for this the last few weeks.planned, paid, and now i cant come. lastly there are 2 types of brake trouble pads or cyl i could rig. hydraulics broken line is another story.i tried pinching off the affected area with vise grips which sometimes works.but not this time. OUCH

Leaving RIGHT after work today!!

Everyone have a good day.

Scrounger I got Delivery man of the week and month when I worked for Dominos pizza and worked for 2 weeks without breaks. The manager had to go with me on a delivery to do my evaluation. When she found out I had been driving for 2 weeks without em and delivering pizza I got employee of the week ($20 and a large pizza and 4 cokes) and driver of the month ($50, 2 large pizzas and 8 cokes). Which was enough to buy a new master cylinder and replaced the old one. She told me I couldn't deliver any more without brakes!!! She ruined all my fun...oh yeah this was when the 30 minute guarantee was still in place. Once or twice I thought the customer was going to end up with a DRIVE THROUGH Pizza. ::) :wink: ;D

Scounger, if it's the long line and metal you might be able to cut out the bad sect. and splice a high pressure hose into it w/clamps. As for the brake lights, it's usually a small switch under the dash behind the brake pedal.
Just a thought.
However, I bow to your concerns of safety for the others on the road.
 

Re: "CHISHOLM TRAIL HUNT 2008" Brand the calendar October10-12th for CTH2

Scrounger,
Sounds like you gave it the ole college try. Wish you could have made it though. Good luck on your other hunt!!!
