Generally. I'm actually a "producing manager".

We've got three extruders, two respoolers, a bonder, and a cabler...and I run whichever one (or two, or three) that we need the most on that day.

We manufacture lots of automotive wires...battery cable, ignition wire, various harnesses for various OE and aftermarket applications.

Whaddya need?

Currently, I'm trying to figure out how to make bubble gum pink ignition wire for a certain "breast cancer awareness Bronco" running around Missouri.

Good morning boys and girls. It's a beautiful Saturday morning here in KC. Mrs. and I have various errands to tend to today...she's in the shower, then we'll be out and about for most of today.

If you get up this way Rich, give us a call and maybe we can say hello.

Rich what body are you getting rid of? I've thought about swapping my cab, for another that has a decent floor, dash, gauges etc. Or just start working, I really don't want to do floor pans!

Allready done that! HA
Smorr is closed this weekend, that means another full week of wrenching, I still haven't done that to Ka'Bluey. Then smorr will be open next friday, saturday, and sunday.
Hollar when you want some pretty faces (Tim and I can come out too) and work/play with trucks. Tim is on "Spring Break" so we're trying to do something this year since it's nice out. Last year was nasty.
Y'all be safe!

I need a week of wrenching on the bronc and then I would like to take it for a shake down run out there.

As far as what body its the red flat bed cab and front clip so Alan can get the running gear. But it has same small rust issues in the drip rail area and remember no title....

But lets plan on you coming up this week sometime and we can look it over and make a deal, and work on the Bronc.

Was told its a 302 but the intake on it is marked "Edelbrock Performer 289" I have not pulled the block #'s and ran it.

It starts and runs strong so I am leaving well enough alone, except for pulling the junk Rochester carb off and putting a spare Edelbrock on it.
