    I'm glad there wan't (much) internet when I was bringing damaged cases back to the terminal. Stacked up on passenger floor and in the side boxes and I don't even drink that crap lol.

    We like pics around here. You’re gonna have to dust off that camera and post some up. The stuff you haul would make some good talkin material round these parts.

  7. Depends on the companies you pickup at. I had two steel plants require a head ache rack, along with a concrete precast plant. So call before you show ask if it's required to get loaded.

    What does one of those engines weigh, Bear? Looks like they ain’t real big, as far as jet engines go?

    I’d need the laptop to explain today. However - I might ask for some help.

    Probably Tuesday/Wednesday next week. Frankfort , IN area. Start a truck that is out of diesel. I’ll get VIN and run to ascertain engine type. Potentially ex Werner FL classic. (2002 ish??)

    Ferry fuel, I’ll get filters, filter wrench, starter fluid, a few tools. Battery charge /jump may help. Crack return lines to help air pass?

    Truck and trailer is in impound yard - unsure of location - load still in trailer - customer not screaming for freight.

    I just need to get the poor girl started, deliver load, and return truck and trailer to owner.

    I may get rental to Frankfort, and have buddy pick me up in Waukegan area and fly back from O’hare to Joplin.

    I put my hand up to the agent in regards to the deceased driver I mentioned here a couple of days ago, to return the horse to the stable for the widow.

    I don’t know them - at all. But the company called today to take me up on the offer.

    Anyone with any lead to a good service truck in that area, or fellow hand that can help - all good.

    I’ll be defecatingly busy next few days on this horrendous load I’ve agreed to, but you can PM me with suggestions if you feel you wanna help.

    I’m paying all costs involved, just felt it was the right thing to do for the family.

    I’m hauling these 1,059 miles - after buying them. That’s how awful my week is going so far.

    30 by 30 on the left, with 10-10 flap.

    40 by 36 with 15-15 flap on right.

    Brand new, $2300. Slightly loved for $800.

    But - a forklift had to set them up there.
