I wish we had a pick and pull closer the nearest is like north nashville about 100+ miles i went there once with my dad and sister we just saw it and said lets go look

Hubscrub · 07-16-2010, 10:15 PM

Hubscrub · 07-17-2010, 07:49 AM

i thought of that but i will have $125 in this one, and what ever it cost to clean, if it needed alot more work i would find something else, and i already have good pistons, and i need one rod
