PLEASE reconsider your outlook on the items. At least you HAVE the items! I live in the middle of the U.S. There is absolutely NO ONE that has any, ANY of ANYTHING of these items. No matter what it be. I and others rely on good people like you to find these items to restore our cars. There is no convienant place. such as major Mopar car shows to go to and try and find the parts that we need. Any sources around here dried up 40 years ago when they crushed and got rid of the cars. If I needed a part, and could not find it, I would compensate you for your time and trouble. We have nothing out here in the middle of BFE. Please don't be mad at us. Not everyone can just go to Carlises, or any major Mopar show venue and pick up the parts we need, even if we happen to find it there. It just isn't possible. If you happen to have something that I need, I would gladly pay you for your time and effort to get it to me. That's all. Don't be mad at us. Just raise your prices so that you can make a profit.  :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Here`s what I would do...

First I`d get me a cool ride... ya know, an old e-body or something.  Then I`d put in my ad: shipping once a week.  Then... once a week, I`d start up the cool ride and cruise / speed / lay rubber down to the post office and post some parts.  Clears the mind (which is good for your health), gives you a smile and all the chicks will love you `cause you have the cool ride!
I see win win  ;)

If that's an issue, maybe he should move his operation to Miami.  Never have a problem finding time to drive down here.  (A/C is a must though.)

Hey, then I could take advantage of his services.  Hmmm.  Win - Win!!!!!

Yes, that is one of the reasons I hate cold weather- the girls wear a lot of clothes!! My cuda is scary enough in the rain, I wouldn`t dare drive it in the snow.  :22yikes:
