I started as 'TeamRush' in '99,
Been here on and off for 10 years, but didn't use the same user name.

 

Started in 1999 also.

 

ive been around here for 9years. I have seen alot of names come and go.

Dave where the heck have you been. You have to have about a zillion years on this board.

 

Hey now I'm not "that" old. I did lurk here for a few years before joining. It was a lot different then, but so was ALL of the internet for that matter.

Maybe I am that old.......................LOL.................

I was online with a C64 and a 4800b modem that was $$$$$ for even a short amount of online time and even less info at that speed.:shocked: (but it was sooooooo much better than the prior TRS80:blush

 

goin' on 10 years.. :laugh:

 

i'm real close......been lurking lately since i'm jeepless for a while

 

I've been around a long time - a few software versions ago anyway. Haven't been around much lately - working on my Model A hotrod, spending a lot of time on the HAMB, traditional hotrod site, and building my flathead Ford V8.

Gotta get the YJ ready soon though - 2 Jeep trips coming up, Sept. and Oct.

Not to hijack the thread. But we need pictures. It is OT but early iron is so cool.

 

Getting old sucks, but it is still better than the alternative.
As I sit here trying to nurse my aching back, you have reminded me how old I'm getting.
I guess my back deserves to complain, over 16 years humped over in a Kentucky coal mine and then 15 plus years wearing a lead apron, and then there was the dirt bike and Jeeps...

 

Just about 10 years for me too.
And I was registered on the previous software version before 1999. I think it was mostly text based back then. Hard to remember what it looked like.

 

I started as Farmjeep back around 98, I think...then was off for a while, then was (am) Farmjeep CRD, when I had a Liberty CRD. Now, I just lurk and plan future projects.

 

I *think* I joined back in 96 or 97, I got the Jeep in 94. The 1999 software change removed the old posts, I don't remember if there they were put somewhere, I bet Taz knows.

 

This September it will be 10 years here for me. :shocked:

 

Getting close to 10 years.

Cool Pete88yj, I got a 35 Packard dump truck, I'm putting it on a '78 F350 chassie with 24 valve Cummins, G56 dually flatbed.

 

Been 10 or a slight more for me, had the same name and disposition back then as I do now. I remember sending IN2DEEP his ford wiring harness manual when he did the 5.0 install, I also remember TR and having indepth conversations about shooting tennis balls on the river near his place with M-1 carbines. Soooooo Its been awhile for me, and I will say this is the best place to glean information when needed about anything mechanized.

I don't remember this at all..........

..... but then again it might be my alzheimer's kickin in........ ha ha...

....maybe I should stop using that joke. It's likely to come true!

 

Wow... It will be 10 years for me in September. Time flies!

 

10 years next month! Wow, it's been a long time. I too remember the days of the text only forum...no pic's, smileys, bad search function...come a long ways since then. I too am currently Jeepless, I miss my old CJ-7 and wheeling with you guys at the Badlands. I'll have a Jeep again, a TJ or maybee a lifted Cherokee someday soon. I've just been lurking lately and it's good to see some of the same old names from way back when I joined. Been busy doing the sportbike thing. Having fun on my RC-51, started doing trackdays on it and cornerworking for the local CCS races.

On the track

Same bike in street trim

 

Want another copy, I made two, you made comments about how I had the harness labeled in with the jeep instruments, but thats okay, everyone here at my home says my problem is toooooo much thinking and remembering. Heck I've been trying to forget half of what I know from working electric all my life, times change people do too, I remember/see everything but don't say much, if you need another copy I got, not a problem.

Want another copy?

No thanks...... I actually still have the original copy in my stack of reference papers. Once I get my hands on some good information, it's hard to let go....

...... I can't believe it's been so long.... and the Jeep is still kicking... getting ready to go to the mountains over the Labor Day weekend.

This is some SERIOUS addiction we all have!!

 

cant remember if i joined up before i got the 5 or after, but found a post from me dating from 9-16-99....

Naw, I think Sept. 99 was just a software change. It shows my join date the same as members who were here long before me. Anyone know when this BBS started? Who were the first two? Was the question, "why does my valve cover leak?"

 

Can anyone field this question?

 

Just checking in and realized that I've been here about 9.5 years. Had to give up being a Jeep owner to be a dad (had to sell it for something more family friendly).
I'm going to work on becoming a boat owner next, since I can't seem to stay away from big pits where I can throw my money.

 

Can anyone field this question?

That's an interesting question. I went back to my ol' Juno Emails and read some of my old posts. The were dated about '95 when PJ ran the board and Part's Mike was a regular contributor. I've no idea what the first question was.

I didn't/don't have much use for PJ; he was most divisive. Part's Mike was/is a wonderful resource and a heck of a nice guy who was driven off the forum by PJ's childish attitude. At that time I took a hiatus from the forum and spent a lot of time on Part's Mike's forum. Most of the questions back then were CJ related, and trying to gain an understanding of that new fangled thing called Fuel Injection.

 

Thanks Larry, I wanted folks to know, there was a BBS long before September 99.
LOL I'd still like to know what the first question was and when the BBS started.

 

Yeah, there was a much different board back before Sept. 99. I found it sometime during the summer of 99. Hard to believe it has been that long.

 

can't remember my join date so replied to read the upper corner and find out

 

Yeah, lots of changes.
Who remembers Lipstream or Paltalk.
Some of these folks on the BBS sure talk funny.

 

Talk funny????

Thats coming from someone that used to go "Well Gooooly" on paltalk so he could hear me cuss him for spitting beer on my keyboard.

 

Even if I sound like Gomer Pyle, my accent is no worse than Pat aka (BUCKYOO7).

 

me have a accent no way
