Found this on craigslist.

Complete 7.3 out of a 2002 for 995.00, says it not running But I would think a guy could part it out if he was interested.

I think the next time my truck won't start I'll have this guy work on it.

Think of the expertise we've been missing out on, where has this super mechanic been?

Kind of anyway. I discovered a great webpage a month or two agao for searching Craigslist. This site allows you to search only certain cities, a state or groups of states, all at once. You all ready be aware of this great tool, but I thought I'd throw it out for those that have not found it:

Just be careful. Woman here in MN went to apply for a nanny job on Craigslist and ended up murdered by the lousy b@&#*rd.

Kris I have been toying with the same idea. Tear it down piece by piece and build it back to whatever I wanted. No time constraints, work at my own speed. Maybe i'll look into it a little further.

When did this happen, I never heard about this on the news. Was it in the twin cities?

She went to a house in Savage MN, thinking it would be a married couple who needed a nanny. The 19 yr old allegely shot her for no good reason and dumped her in the trunk of her car and left her at some big park in Savage.

It isn't craigslist that is the problem. In todays society we need to be careful at all times. I am truly sorry for this girl and her family but to relate it to craigslist is wrong. This girl could of just as easily met this sicko at the mall, club or anyone of a million places. Might be a good idea for anyone to meet someone they don't know in a public place first....

Steve, I know it was not specifically a result of craigslist it does serve as a good reminder to be careful. That was my only reason for pointing out the story.I agree
wholeheartedly with the thought of meeting in a public place whenever possible. I watch craigslist all the time myself. One common thread on that site though is what flakes many on there seem to be. Just common sense to watch yourself. There are many sickos out there. Not like the fine folks here at FTE!

Sorry about the hijack and rant.
