About Me
I do a lot, Cars, computers, guitars, drums, music mixing, motorbikes, snowmobiles, scouts(almost Eagle rank), robotics, A/V. 4-H(I show a goose...), teaching music lessons, doing some graphic design stuff, and a whole crapton of other stuff that keeps me busy and out of (or most of the time in) a lot of trouble. I might seem like a nerd or a poser, but I do what I like and what I want to do and it makes me happy. That's as simple as that-I don't play guitar, mod cars, build sound systems, or build PCs to prove anything. It's just my passion, and I love life and meeting new people who share my interests.
General Vehicle Comments
My dad brought this and a Pantera 5000 Home one day, with a bad engine in this one and a bad track and gearbox in the Pantera. Both were Extremely dirty and damaged. It's become my project, and I've done an engine swap, painted rusted over parts, Dad had the engine mount remade to accomodate the different clutch setup, and I changed the runners and shocks over. The Pantera got dragged out completely gutted, and we're left with this!
Bulletin Board
Just got her running well and starting consistently, Repainted the runners and engine parts, and cleaned up the engine bay. I just have to repair the hood latch and she'll be ready for Winter!

Sounds like a great deal. I pickup any Rupp I come across for parts anymore. Had my 73 out crusin the "hood". My oldest daughter got home from work N took a spin, then the youngest got home N went out for a quick blast N came home w a cop on er ass. Said she was wearin her helmet N not drivin stupid so gave er a warning. Both girls know to drive it straight to the back yard if followed home so they can't impound it. LOL Runnin OK but its old gas N I was hoping to run the tank out of it N replace with new gas. Lucky I didn't have the Magnum out with her. That thing will hold the front skii's up for over a 100yds when standin on it!!Drive it like ya stole it. LMAO My wifes knee replacement surgery isn't doing so well N she's havin a hard time. So its kinda hard to sneek out. That N she's bummed she can't go for a ride. Was hoping to get over to White LK. They have racin all weekends N I've made a few $$ on guys thinkin they can beat up a 40yr old sled. Lost some too. Only because I don't have the top end they do.
