    M-1028 Paint job, 383 green CARC / Rock Slider installation.

    looking to get a mule

    Good list. I wouldn't worry too much about data plates, rims, or a super clean deck. You can find/fix these easily. The deck cover plates and engine guard are super hard to find.

    California members

    I was able to rent a cabin. Definitely get on the waiting list since some people cancel their reservations. That's how I got mine. I believe there is a hotel in flag city, just a few miles down the road from Tower park but i'm not 100% sure.

    vic1 switch question

    Hey gang, I'm working on mounting my VIC-1 radio. I want to mount this switch to the upright of my soft top. Any idea how to get this snap thingy out without damaging the unit? I have some pics I've downloaded showing a similar mounting so I know it's doable.
