Title: Rambler Ranch Tour/Eagle Motel 2012
Post by: eaglefreek on October 12, 2012, 07:30:05 PM
It's underway. I arrived at the Ranch a little before 10am and Dave (vangremlin), Shane (Shanebo) and Ralph (eaglebeek) arrived soon after. We got shanghied into washaing a few of Terry's cars. R Mick, Turbo Gremlin, Rollguy and Strike Eagle arrived shortly after. We all did our own tour of the Ranch and went to lunch around 12. Had a good time. Terry is such a generous guy. I won't go on the cruise tomorrow, but will meet up with the group at the hotel late afternoon. Here are a few teaser pics. I've got a bunch more, but probably won't post them for a couple days.

I want a Kammback sooo bad!

The black and red Eagles really look good! Wish I could have been there this year!

Today was a great start to the weekend.  Eaglefreek had to hit the road early, Shanebo, Rollguy, Eaglebeek and I stuck around, some of us until almost 6 checking out all the things to see at the Ranch.  I'll be posting more pictures after the cruise on Sunday.

I made it there Saturday a little before 6 PM, just before leaving for the German restaurant. Great group of people and had a great time. Here's Rich (rollguy) and Shanebo's wife enjoying "Beer Barrel Polka". Roll out the barrel........

All I can say is WOW! Never seen so many eagles in one place in my life. Glad that a good time was had by all!

Here's an article and slide show that Ted Hollman published about the recent Eagle Tour 2012.

That is an excellent article.  Thanks for posting it.  It's gratifying to read something about Eagles written by a true car guy who knows whereof he speaks.

I'm pretty sure that's Terry's.

Yup, it is Terrys. I found a picture of the back end and she had the temp tag in the window.

Awesome pictures by the way!

I finally get a chance to add some photos!  It only took buying a new computer and uploading programs (apps) for hours.  I can now access my photobucket, so here they are:

Our Eagle and I were at the back of the line. Whether seen in the mirror or through the windshield an uninterrupted line of Eagles is an image worthy of appreciation. Thanks for posting the pictures. :eagle:

You can want all you like ;D   I don't think Terry will let loose of any of his cars.

He's got a couple in his boneyard he might part with....they don't look anything like this one though.

Post by: Prafeston on November 20, 2013, 09:43:46 PM
Yeah, pretty sure you told me about those and I have talked to him about them. I don't have the money to purchase a project in CO and have it hauled back to MO! :(
Title: Re: Rambler Ranch Tour/Eagle Motel 2012

Maybe you could move to CO??

Post by: Prafeston on November 20, 2013, 09:50:53 PM
I wouldn't be against it, but that would require me looking for a job! And yeah I just checked my old emails. He said he had 3 Kammbacks for sale, but all of them need some work in order to make the drive back to MO! :)

Colorado also seems to have an endless supply of eagles in the junk yards, so far, I have only come across one here
