Contact OVERNIGHT EXPRESS, they have the lowest frieght rates I've found; usually about 1/2 the rate of the big freight lines. It takes them about 1 week, coast-to-coast. JimG

I don't think one should start a parts business, but an "occasional" for sale item isn't out of line. Note: "I think" - Not everyone else will necessarily agree with me. Jim

John, You're one of the few people I've ever encountered that knew the Olds alum V-8 was not the same as a Buick alum V-8. They had 2 more studs per cylinder and were much stronger than the Buick. Ol
