The wife and I were strolling the Foster pick&pull and stumbled across a 1990 syncro van, someone really had gone over it. I got the rear shoulder belts and the front AC duct soon to be over head storage shelf. But for us vulture types im sure we can still find some decent stuff on it, ITS PICKED OVER...ALL SYNCRO STUFF LOOKS TO HAVE BEEN TAKEN OUT FOR A WESTY OR LESS RUSTY VAN CANDIDATE. Thought i'd share this with you guys-

On the 20th xmas gathering; is this Kid friendly?

I also got OC trail build lit today, I m having a fuel pressure issue thats getting worked out. I will follow up the thread w/ pics&vid soon. I hope to be on the road in the next month or two.

Happy Holidays

Dillon

Ask J Kidd where that Syncro came from!

He already picked it clean for his conversion.

I'm surprised they would even bother putting it out in the yard.

It is going! As you can see, I got just about everything I need. Still some stuff to buy and lots to do, though. Hopefully it will be a 4wd by this spring! Cool

Can't wait to see everybody at Tilt this Saturday! Yep, it is kid friendly.

Sweet y'all!

It looks to be a fun get together this Saturday (the 20th) at 2pm! Come late if you need to, obviously a Kidd friendly environment. There are many people planning on attending that have not posted up. If your planning on coming holler so we can get a general idea of numbers. Here is the address:

3449 N. ANCHOR ST. SUITE 200 PORTLAND, OR 97217

I'm going to give these gives a heads up that we will be rolling in, so they can order extra beer. Laughing

Looking forward to see everyone, and hopefully a bunch of new faces!

Cheers
Jahbah~D

I and the Mister will be there. Looking forward to it, although a mighty amount of rain is forecast for this weekend. I'm not expecting a whole lot of parking lot socialization with our rides. :-/ In any case, I'll be glad to see everyone. Smile Cheers!

Kidd strikes again?

I recommend we keep a close eye on john at Tilt. Especially the Syncro owners.

Rain? Welcome to the ole PNW.

Aaaah shucks! I was hoping to time our trip up to Parkdale with a slight layover at the Tilt holiday gathering today. Now it looks like the clutch cylinder has given up the ghost after 200k miles. The morning plans have changed which sets us behind making our way north from CornValley.

Happy Holidays to all the PdX Sambanistas. Hope to hang out with everyone at ClimberJohn's campout later in the spring.

Rob
