After 1200+ miles, three stops to fix the alternator and three stops to fix the cross member, I finaly have my Cheromanche in town! I will try to post pictures in a reply, but lets just say some redneck engineering went into getting this vehicle up here. For now I say "Thank God for 550 cord!"

My co-worker said the same thing
Lesson learned: Always carry para-cord
