Leaving Friday for Little Rock, then No. Louisiana on Saturday morning then on to DFW area. And finally to the Austin-Ft. Hood area later that day. Any movement of parts I can help with?

I live in Texarkana, you can bring me a 572 Big Block.

Thanks

Still going to Louisiana, hope you got 4x4!

Boy did I pick the right weekend to be making a road trip. Gas jumped another 10 cents, just today, to 2.89. My parents are on a 5th wheel trip in IL and it jumped .30 to 2.99 while they were filling up.

Sure no one needs parts moved around and can throw in a couple dollars for gas?

lamar · 08-31-2005, 11:12 PM

2.99 a gallon? I just filled up today at 3.49. That was early this afternoon, I hear it's at 4.00 now.
