Just bought a Rumble Bee

[vetteheadracer]

My mate Fred just collected my 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 Truck "Rumble Bee" from the dealers in Virginia should be in the UK by the end of September!

OMG I am going to be a Dodge owner....

Are you seeking the largest collection of yellow American cars this side of the Atlantic, perchance?

Very nice.

[te51cle]

Gonna join the AAEC then ?

Saw one of them today at a dealer near to where we are staying. It looked absolutely awesome. Suppose you're buying it to trailer the Z06 (nice colour match).

How's Corvettes at Carlisle going Rich? Hope you are enjoying it. We are all preparing for the weekend of hot sunny weather....NOT!

Enough room under the bonnet to put twin turbo's and a supercharger. Now if there was some way to harness the heat out of the exhausts without burning the paint off and redirect it to the cargo bay we would have a great platform for a BBQ at next years LM

Pretty hot and muggy here. The event starts tomorrow for three days so we are doing the sightseeing bit so far.
Got our hire car upgraded to a Chrysler 300 Hemi. Seems to be causing quite a stir amongst the locals, but I'm not sure why - it looks like a brick and drives like a jelly.... I don't want to hijack your thread so a full report will follow.

Plenty of room but I will resist.
I chopped down 6 dead trees last weekend so we are going to have the world's biggest bonfire this weekend!
Could save the big logs for LM, but probably won't.

It will save on hotels next year as we can sleep in the back of the pickup......perhaps not.

I can think of someone that wont be very impressed with that idea

I guess you will now be looking for a house with a nice detached multistorey car park

Oy, my mate's got Fred looking for a Z06. Stop hogging him all to yourself. No wonder we can never get hold of him. LOL.

He has gone to Corvettes at Carlisle to try and sell the 1968 (or is it 9) red L88 that he and Tom Falconer own.

My truck is sitting in his garage

Whats the status on this Nige! Will you be bringing it to Fairmile?

[Ruby Rag Top]

Hey Nige, just been checking out a few sites. Have you sold the Rumble Bee already? check out www.dealer.autotrader.co.uk/_silverstream.htm to compare prices.

[vetteheadracer]

That is Steve Benson! He has 2 RumbleBee's so there will soon be 3 in Fleet!

I won't be driving the truck to the Fairmile as it will still be at sea, I hopefully pick it up next Thursday or possibly Friday.
