    I am actually currently based out of southern Arizona and only brought back a hood, a rear valance and a set of clutch pedals. I will be making a trip to Ohio at the end of this month and will deliver these parts to my son.

    My offer still stands although it will not be for this trip. My genuine hope was to try to help those like "tody" (wherever they may be) http://www.maverick.to/mmb/showthread.php?t=55285
    who could use some honest help in looking for rust free parts.

    I was in Arizona City about two months ago.

    Next time I am in the Tucson area with some spare time I will try to give you a shout ahead of time and see if I can come see some of your signature selections.

    How's the truck? Are you still going to be able to make the trip to Kentucky?

    Truck will be finished tomorrow. Then we have to go to Show Low to get it. New trailer hitch is supposed to be delivered tomorrow.

    Ruth's Taurus was finished today but the tranny still shifts hard from 1 to 2. Think we are going to be in the market for a new car. Also it has a broken motor mount. That's going to be fixed tomorrow also.

    My 70 Maverick started screwing up when we were picking up Ruth's Taurus and wouldn't shut off again. New ignition and key being put in first thing in the morning. Had to leave it there.

    73 Comet GT went in to the shop today to start working on the resto of that one. I sold him my Sprint and he is going to work it off in bodywork on the Comet. He does nice work. Actually I wanted the Comet out of the garage so I could put the race car in there.

    Also cleaned the floor in the trailer so as soon as the 70 comes back it is going straight into the trailer and getting tied down. We have a lot of boxes to go back to the Gathering. Since Ruth is the President it would be hard to miss going back there. So we'd have to go even if we had to rent a car.

    Well you know what they say Don, things always happen in threes, so you are there so it should be smooth sailing the rest of the week, heck you have to get on the road to take a break. :)
