How's the truck repair going Pharm? Usually with me it's always longer to get up and going than what they said.

I knew it would be a while due to the holiday weekend and needing to order parts. Fingers are crossed for tomorrow I guess, but I don't know.

Pharm it will all work out as long as you get the right part. You back down in Ga?

my tire man a couple days ago for a friend of mine and he could have
put the fella TWO NEW drive tires for $550.
Sometimes if you got the couple exta $20 dollar bills and can get the
price right it's worth it to spend it and get virgin tires. -
But caught another break, only the one piece of the mount needs replaced. The other bellhousing mount was ok, so that's $170 less than expected.The Challenger Thanks this. -
