Hi. I’m back.

Post by KingpinCEO »

:cheers

Hi. I’m Jaimeson… I disappeared for a while. Haven’t gone to Carlisle since 2020…

Here’s updates:

I had a baby last year June 30 2023, her name is Dakota
Started working part time at a machine shop December 2022.
My 1985 merkur still runs.

My garage is now:
1985 merkur - still 403whp
1988 Mercedes 190e - on air suspension
2005 dodge magnum. Still running strong but has electrical gremlins
2008 Subaru legacy gt. Built the engine myself during quarantine, runs on HALTECH, and shoots flames out the exhaust.
1965 mustang…. Currently restoring as restomod
2020 dodge Durango r/t just purchased used a few months ago because I need reliable transit for my DJ business.



That’s all

Hope to be at Carlisle 2024
1985 Merkur XR4Ti - 2.5 ranger block greyhound bus turbo

Good to have you back in the Merk-fold.

What car will you drive to Carlisle?

You left? :mrgreen:

See you in 10 days. Don't forget the simple 3 step program.... https://www2.merkurclub.net/pages/events

I'm not sure about hotel room availability right now. If you can get one at the discounted rate, grab it. Worse case you can always cancel it a couple days prior if needed.
