I wish I could!
I'm pinching pennies until Oct. though. Outings will be few and far between for me.

They will get to see the joys of taking 294 South on a Friday after work :)

If it were further south, and I had a running jeep I might go, but I just really do not want to drive 5 hours in a questionable jeep.

All depends on if you get my paperwork to me by next week so I can get a permit to drive.

You forget what I do for a living...I can find pretty much anything with good directions.... Oh and I have been on 294 many many many times.

I was really hoping I wouldn't have a reason to come back to the Greater Chicago area.

Oh well, I guess you guys(and a new jeep) are worth it.

Bah, you don't need no stinkin' paperwork. I drove an XJ from Boston back to Indy with no plates at all, just the title and bill of sale in the glovebox. Never got stopped, even after going through an EzPass booth at the tolls without realizing (and not paying) :doh:

but did you buy it 2+ weeks before driving it back?

Not quite that long, I bought it on eBay a week prior to making the flight out.

Wish I could make it up there for the M&G, but that's finals week. No travel for me.

Amazingly enough, I blasted through this afternoon on 294 with no issues to speak of. Hit the IN/IL state line just before 5:00 PM.

Hate to spoil but it is a clone. I would rather drive a clone that i can actually drive, and beat on and not worry about stone chips, than a real one.. it eventually will have a fuel injected 347 in it.... ( stroked 302) but for now it still has the original 67 289 in it..
and it a good from 10 feet car..

this is my current project

Back to topic..
well the lift kit is on the t-case drop ended with my largest extractor broken in one of the bolts
so off to menards for carbides to drill that out.
I am going to try and make it out...
I'll pm you for directions...

I'm going to try and make it, depending on the weather. Does anyone have a place I can crash at Friday night? Unfortunately T has to work Friday so she won't be coming with.

Looking at the weather, its supposed to be nice....if you can call winter Chicago weather nice.

I'm more worried about the weather for the 4 hour trip there and back than the weather in Chicago. The cold really doesn't bother me, but snow on the roads make the bad drivers worse.

I guess you could crash here. Just need to make sure to be quiet in the morning, since Cindy will be working Friday night. Holiday season is always busy for her, and she needs her sleep.

On that note, if we are still going when she get's home (usually around 11-12 on weekends), that will be the time to wind things down. I doubt us old farts will last that long, but you never know...:D

You can stay at our house Friday night. If you want to just drive to our house you can ride to and from John's with us also. We have an extra bed room with a queen size bed.

Meh, I'm out also. The hubs on the nissan went and the heep is flashing a check engine light at me. I don't have enough cash to fix both and pay for gas to get down there.

Ryan's plane is running 30 minutes late....then he has to pickup his Jeep and probably check into the hotel before we start heading for Crestwood....so I wouldn't expect us to get there until at least 7

We are out, I have been fighting a cold for a week and I am working on the far east side of Rockford, by the time I drive home, get LAR, then drive to Crestwood, it will be four hours with friday traffic.
Sorry guys, kick the Doc once in the nads for me.
