Roehl Driver Check In Continued

Monticello MS waiting on a noon load that now will be ready...tomorrow. Guess a paper roller broke down. Got pulled over by Mississippi Highway Patrol today for a 'random inspection.' Could it be because the 61___ trailer looked rusted out? Anyway, no violations so I'll be getting my Roehl Christmas Bonus!

 

'74 CJ5 fiber body, tilt front end, 31s, 44 rear & 30 front in 3.73, 232 rebuilt to 268 featuring a ford electronic dist driven by a early 80s Escort coil and a mid 70s Chevy HEI module (easily the best of the mods ive done to this project--credit to JunkYardGenius at off-road.com forums for the help!) 1.5" body lift (looks homemade), brand new supertop this past year---FINALLY!

That place is horrible, I wasted 4 hours on a preload.

Welcome to small town USA. Or pre 1990 or so. Except major cities.

 

This was interesting...tractor trailer turning right in Robert LA today had a pickup sneak in on his right, he didn't see it so as he got halfway through turn they met and it lifted the right side of the trailer and the left side of the pickup off the ground. Pickup was against a light pole on its right so there they sat. Both tipped up with half their tires a foot off the ground talking to the local cop. Got the AC on...warm & humid in Mississippi.

 

PLot I-74 Indiana. Deliver in Lebanon tomorrow morn. Got tangled up for 5 hrs in Trenton today at the shipper. Makes for a long day. Well past my bedtime..

 

Who knew my town was such a popular destination? lol

 

Pilot in Lebanon, IN waiting for a PP. Been quite awhile since I haven't had one before sending empty call.
