What Ever Happened To ?

Highrider · 01-24-2010, 08:03 PM

What ever happened to John and Liz aka Lady in Red, last I saw of them on this site, John had issues at the Texas Rally.
I know they had some high miles on their car, did they sell it or where did they go? Won the Mega Bucks perhaps?

Lots of old members quietly slipping away!

Their last activity on the site was November 2009. Haven't signed up for the Laughlin Run and that's the last time I saw them, Laughlin 2009.

Margie and I saw them both about a month ago shopping. I don't remember asking them if they were going to Laughlin or not, but something is nudging my memory about a day trip I think. They still have their

John's transmission failed at the rally, we went down on Sunday with a trailer and took him up here to Weatherford to the shop and built his trans on Monday. The last we heard from him was the Tuesday he left, he was calling from the road to say everything was fine and he was heading home. He was very easy going about the whole situation with his truck and I enjoyed spending some time with him on our trip back from the Hill Country.

I thought John told me it was 130,000 when I saw him walking in Kerrville.

Yes, I gave him a ride...

I do remember him saying he was very happy with the transmission fix.

Thanks to everyone who has been asking about us.

John had dental work scheduled recently so I didnt make firm
reservations for the weekend. John is planning to drive down on Saturday.
Waiting for a reply from MikeinAz as we speak to see if he has a Main Fan kit to sell.
The milage is at 145.415 as of a minute ago. The tranny is doing
great! thanks to Greg and everyone who assisted John in his time of need in Kerrville.
Planning on the Colorado trip.

I will repeat once again. Maybe we need a 100K mile club

Anyone heard from Hank in AZ. Zane or Linda might know. Hank had a Hopped up Black SSR. He spent a fortune on that Baby.

I miss talking to Hank.

Good point but the co-pilot is the NAV. and likes to watch the scenery along the way. Not to mention the space in the 2- car garage. Might need to give up the 08 CTS.
