Just like a long gone gent did with me 30 years ago. I needed a 37 Chevy truck hood emblem. Had no money. He gave me a whole hood. I still have that hood. Minus one emblem. It hangs on a wall. I still thank him on occasion. Barry


I'm sorry, I'm a little ADHD at times, a man gave me a part for my motorcycle for free at one point, all he asked was that i share my knowledge with the community freely. I always planned to repay him, but he was hit and killed in a turn lane by some old lady who couldn't hardly see the road and was going way to fast over the speed limit. Since then I've realized it's not always about money, but sometimes just helping someone else out.

I'll see what I find, I'm a horrible pack rat anyways, but i just moved and I'm getting a new shed, so i'm sure i can try and accumulate some smaller things as needed.
