Let me correct myself a bit from my last post, I wanted to thank Scott with the others, not Dave. Dave does not exist, I know no Dave.

I ended up sellng my old external balance 4.25 crank, my spare msd 6 al, and my old tach and shift light. I ended up taking almost as much money home today as I showed up with friday. Plus I bought a nice set of good year slicks. And a few other odds and ends, air tools and a light weight hood for the car. Then dad and I cut 8 more pounds off of it friday night.

And yeah the dodge was still pretty heavy when it left, but they moved some inventory. You got out of the area just in time, they are predicting a storm tomorrow that could yield 9" of white stuff.

And yeah the dodge was still pretty heavy , I think evil16v was asking about Ricks stuff/ They were going after that stuff late friday, I did talk to Rick saturday mnorning, but he didnt say anything about it. To fill you guys in on what this is about, here is the story. We met our buddy Rick for breakfast at 6 am before the swap meet, also met up with evil16v, and I didnt see Ricks truck and trailer. He was bringing a load of complete 454s a few small block 5-6 transmissions, WELL somewhere out west on I70, his transfer case blew all over the road, ripped out both drive shafts, e-brake cable, broke off the rear off the trans as well. Basicly junked the whole drive line, PUKED it on the hiway. He ended up leaving the whole mess at a truck stop, getting a rent a wreck to drive. He wasnt sure if anything would be left on his trailer when he got back out there, open flat bed trailer. I will find out today.

OK.... Now going through your website, I am putting things together. You say you know Garrison? Are you the Guy that he feeds wheel centers to?

That is what I was thinking after reading up on them a bit. Now I know why they are 450.00 bucks. But I only paid 175.00 (nib) for it, otherwise I would not have got it.
