    If your check clears, I'll ship anywhere.

              vr4boy - you've got mail.

              I ordered 5 transmission supports two weeks ago and was told they'd go right out. I called this morning as I've been anxiously awaiting their arrival.

              I was told, "Oh, they will go out today or tomorrow." GEE THANKS!

              Soo, I need cores!

              Paul (e30pq) shipped me his support and it arrived today. We started on it this evening. I'll weld it up tomorrow.

              If it doesn't rain tomorrow, I'll paint it and it will go back the following day. Epoxy paint doesn't dry too well if it's really humid.

              Thanks everyone for your interest and especially your patience.

              I'd planned on having 5 in stock so you wouldn't have to wait, but here we are - waiting. Sorry!

              If you have a support I can use, PM me and we'll get moving.

              Here's Pauls:

                  Still getting the 5 supports. The templates are made, metal pieces are cut out and bead blasted - ready for welding. I'm just waiting on the supports.

                          I am going to possibly want one of these in the next few weeks. How would it work to send you my brace as a core after I have gotten yours? Just curious.
