msgross · 01-10-2009, 10:26 PM

im gonna drive over it to attempt the ever elusive "tailgate straightening" technique...

stynchrr · 01-10-2009, 10:36 PM

How close are you to the turnpike or 322? Do you have a better pic of the bottom edge and looking end to end to see the amount of bow?

Thanks,
Tim

Hey, if it works, it'll turn a $50 gate into a $150-200 gate.

v8blaze · 01-10-2009, 10:58 PM

after you drive over it, cut out the letters and mail them to me for my s10 lol

Im only 5 minutes from the Turnpike at HWY 72 just south of Lebanon, PA.. It's probably a two inch bow in the center, gate still worked when removed. I can get a better pic if you want...

It might just do that...or it might be a $15 piece of scrap...worth a shot to me...

For $50 you can have them!

stynchrr · 01-11-2009, 12:07 AM

I see where you are at I got to see if my wife will allow a detour when we go home in Feb. I would be running 283 closest to you. I am from to pittsburgh area living in Delaware. Let you know when I talk to her.

Thanks
Tim

If you came up 72 from Lancaster I could meet you at the Hess station sitting on the north side of the Turnpike...

THat wouldn't be far out of your way, then jump on the turnpike and keep on trucking...

stynchrr · 01-15-2009, 01:22 PM

I will pm you to see if it sold before I head out. I looks like we would be coming through your area on the 21 or 22 of Feb.

Thanks,
Tim

msgross · 01-15-2009, 01:57 PM

stynchrr · 01-16-2009, 10:39 AM
