My R Journey

[Muligan]

The real license plate arrived today.... now if I just had something to bolt it to.



And a little musical interlude on a chilly near-spring day.... it's been a long cold winter, but this video helped melt off some of the icicles.

".... and she loves to dance."

How many times a day are you checking for your window sticker?

Are you a farmer Chris?

Waaaaaay to many times to admit.... probably slowing down the search engine over at research maniacs. :shrug:

Then I guess I need to stop checking too.

I have a shortcut on my phone and desktop and since it's so easy I check mine like 6-10 times a day. :lol:

And yes, when my car finally popped up in COTUS it was an exciting moment and it made my day. :cheers:

If I had your VIN, I would be looking for you as well. Exciting times!

Exciting times, for sure. Seems like there are quite a few members here watching their cars go through the process. Yeah, I'd like to see a window sticker, but as long as this one rolls down the assembly line before the end of April and has a big black plastic panel where a radio would normally go, I'm going to be happy.

And for all of you who have gone before and waited sooooo long for your cars, thanks for letting us share your rides vicariously all this time.

Are you a farmer Chris?

Not personally - just close to a bunch (family and friends). Living where I do, it's not hard to remember "No Farms... No Food."

Since it's the weekend, I'm not going to sweat it too bad, but my VIN and order info is showing as "vehicle not found" in COTUS today. Sigh............

Maybe this is just the process before they issue the window sticker and blend date - yeah, that must be it....., sure.

You will be fine and probably just a small glitch in the system and hopefully next week you will have access to your VIN and window sticker.

Friday was a busy day for R model production as ~20 R's rolled through production that day with all cars destined for the Great White North.

Mine started doing the same thing last night.

Rest easy, its back in cotus

And with no changes or surprises - seems all is still on track for a build next week. Should have the window sticker in the next few days with that elusive blend date and we can move forward from there.

Okay, so this isn't related to my R journey... at least not directly.... but when I got to my shop at the local airport yesterday to do a little work, including trying to get that R splitter off H2614, this is the sight that greeted me.

Seems the first real nice day of Spring brings out all the birds.......

Left to right - T-6, Bearcat, Wildcat. And, you should have heard when all three were doing run-ups at the same time..... something about three radial engines pumping out a combined 4,400 or so horsepower can sure put a smile on your face.
