Now you are finding out why we don't have a great Chapter here, eh? If YOU can get them together, have at it! We can't!

Hey Bud, how was your trip? Did you post some pics for the chapter to see?

I will help where I can. Just got to keep trying to find that common bond that pulls you all together.

Maybe we should auction off TB's Truck.

What do you think?

Hey there jquest2. BTW what's your first name?

Did you know that after you get 25 posts, you can setup a signature?

Back to your question. It depends on what type of parts you are looking to buy. What are you looking to buy?

Great pictures Bud, being an Elvis fan I really liked the ones of Graceland. That is a fantasy trip my wife and I dream about, to be able to go across country like that and stop at the various attractions. Taking my grand kids along may prove daunting though.
