naahhh, Gimp was still in good spirits, considering his wrecker was a wreck.

I'm sorry I couldn't make it back out on Saturday. I know you guys didn't do much if any wrenching, so you really didn't need another person getting in the way; but I would have liked to have seen that train going down the highway!!

On the other hand, if Kip made Adam sick, or the other way around....I'm glad I wasn't there...I don't need to bring that kind of stuff home to the baby.

Kip, it was very nice to meet....but I'm glad you only gave me a power supply and not the gift that keeps giving. :wink:

No Rich. This is another fine example of how well GL is run. I purchased a 5ton multifuel in a can. It took about 3 months for the EUC to go through. Then I picked it up and dropped it off at Oilcan's. Never thought about it till this weekend. Once we retrieved it and opened it, we saw it was a Cummins 250. Anyone wanna trade for an LDS?

On a side note, I now have in the pole barn all 3 examples of austin-western cranes. M108, M62, and M819. Think doghead will notice if I ship the M108 to him instead of the M819? Maybe I could send Gimpys M62 along also!

Couldn't stay long friday evening. Still got to drive the M819, and help out a little. Hope you are feeling better Kip.

Another motor Gimpy? Have you unearthed the other LDS yet? Is it's operability unknown?

The one I got from Kevin has not been gone through and is not a new motor. I don't want to waste time putting something slightly question-able in the wrecker. It is just too much of a pain to have it not working. I will use parts from the broken LDS and the LDS in the can to make one that is known good.

So if this motor Dave found is fresh, you are going to swap all the LDS stuff to it and run that, right?
