Bill and guys of zerog,

Sorry I have not been on here much. My dad passed away and I have been consumed with it since it happened. My dad was a machinist/mechanic as well (He owned T&T Repower in Stilwell, OK); I showed him Bill's website and he REALLY got a kick out of it. Anyway, he had a LOT of stuff that you, Bill, may be able to use. Now, I am not trying to SELL this stuff, but offering (much of) it to you at no charge or strings at all to help advance our habits. I have TONS of SAE adapters, lathes (LeBlond), mills (Bridgeport, Allied), surface grinders (Van Norman), valve grinders (Sioux, B&D).............etc., etc., etc. My dad loved his tools and loved to work them; I cannot see them sitting idle. I am just hoping that there is a way that I may contribute more to the advancement of our hobby.

With that being said, put me down for one of these 6G72 Billhousings. Do you remember I picked up that 3000GT VR4 for $500? The body isn't nice, but it runs and shifts and all. This got me thinking.......

How much and when can I get one?

WOW!

I'd be willing to donate a few bucks to help shipping cost if Bill is interested in some/all of this equipment.

I was just thinking that I can make a list of stuff that is there and you can let me know what you could use. Is there anything that would make making these bellhousings easier? I dunno, Bill, I am not a machinist, but I want to help.

Les, where are you located?

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.

Damn guys I'd be willing to drive the flatbed and load the equipment in OK, if it comes down to that. Plenty of heavy equipment experience on my part. Just let me know.

I have a class A CDL if someone has a truck/trailer and wants to share driving duties.
