Stigian 1,234 #114 Posted May 13, 2012 I've just got round to reading this thread All I can say is WOW, your a great bunch of guy's for making this happen.. Hat's off to you all. I bet it's driving you a bit nut's Lars waiting for your rather large parcel to arrive, but it will be worth the wait.. Can't wait to see the "unwrapping" photos :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neil 2,398 #115 Posted May 13, 2012 I know how it feels Lars to wait for your parcel , i know i had the same excitement when my 551 was being shipped to UK , I am now on my third Tractor and it is still just as exciting. My RJ 58 was picked up from Joe Papke on friday and is now on its way to the shipping port. not too much longer to wait know Lars ,June will soon be here . what are your first plans with the tractor when it arrives ?

stevasaurus 22,229 #116 Posted May 13, 2012 I have always hated waiting for anything since I was in boot camp in the Navy. They made us stand at attention for 2 hours in the hot sun waiting to get all of our shots in our arms. Hated waiting ever since. :) :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lars 526 #125 Posted May 25, 2012 :angry-cussingblack: Got Another mail from the shippingcompany to day......... Regrettable message! We do not get the container due to strikes. The container is fully cleared, and the truck was only rejected this morning in the harbor. (Think it's the pilot who strikes.) If the strike is called off during that time, the shipping company promised to run the container to Halden, so it is ready for collection on Monday 4 June. :no: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
