Here are a few photos of our breakfast run to Rock Springs today.  We had a great time and a fun drive with only a few missteps along the way.  We headed out of Phoenix between 8:30 & 9:00am.  Headed north on I-17 to Rock Springs.  A trip of 25-30 miles and had a great breakfast.  They are really know for their pies and a couple of guys decided to have pie with their breakfast.  I wish I had done the same.  We came back into town and attended a grand opening of a new hot rod shop then headed home.  On the way home my former youthful enthusiasm got the best of me at a stop light grand prix and I paid the price with a broke tranny.  I think I broke the hockey stick in my Berg-5.  So I guess I will be busy this week pulling everything out of the car.  I will try to get my hands on a set of diamond axles that a friend has and replace my SAW axles while I have the transmission out of the car.  Wish me luck!  At my age I am going to need it.

Donny B,

Hopefully I will rejoin the ranks soon.  Still a few things to finish like running my larger fuel line, finishing my exhaust and then start assembling.

Hopefully it IS the hockey stick. Did mine at Sacto a couple of years ago. I know you're not into slamming the gears too much, but do yourself a favor and either get a gusseted piece from Rancho or the new billet one from Folts. That's a crappy job to replace such a cheap part. Getting one of these options is good insurance. Hopefully see you in March!
