Subject: Recent Car Show Pics
Hi all,
Between the snowfalls up here in Calgary, I managed to get to my first
show
of the year last weekend. There are a few pics on our club website at
www.mopars.org of my 300E parked alongside a very nice 300F. Look under
the
Spring Thaw caption. Also on the the site under "Projects" is the 61
Windsor
the I am currently working on.
Enjoy,
Angelo Canal

I have used lacquer thinner in the past, however it is a bit nasty insofar
as the fumes are concerned.

Hi Gang, Just in case your thinking about saving a few bucks freight by
picking up your tires at Cokers on the way thru TN to the meet or meets
you have another think coming!!
I called them the minute I heard about the tires being ready (they are
not and won't be till the end of May!) and was told that freight per tire
to IA will be around $14 each. I thought the tires were ready to pick up
and was only about 100 miles away from Chattanooga at the time on the way
to FL and thought "hey... I'll just pick them up now and save the freight"
Wrong, wrong, wrong!! Aside from the fact they wont be available till the
end of May, If you decide to pick them up yourself at their store you will
have the privilege of paying the TN 8.9% (ouch!!) sales tax that would not
be charged if you live out of state and they ship them via UPS (their
house carrier)
What ensued after my learning of this fact of life was a rather heated
discussion of what does it matter who they use for a carrier, UPS. Fed Ex,
Yellow, CF or any other DOT licensed outfit including CRST Flatbed ( the
company I'm leased to) They stated that state law required them to charge
the tax to ANYONE that picked up their own items at their place of
business. (yeah...right)
Any way, bottom line is they said we might be able to work something out
(yeah...right)
8 tires @ $145.50 X 8.9% =$103.60
VS:
8 tires freight @$14 = $112
Hey $8.40 is $8.40.....(yeah right)
Later
Dave Schwandt
