Re: Chevy 51" original Texas truck,,now in Holland
Thanks,, its to bad that I am away from home all the time, now I am
In russia for my work, I stay here 1 month,go back for a week , pick up my Cab from the sandblaster, bring it to the shop for welding, go back to russia again for a month, and then I will go to Conneticut NY for a week of three.. Thats a better place to be,then russia.. When I am in NY ,I order more stuff by summit,and wil put it in my bagage.. Saves me a lot of money, otherwise summit have to send it to the Netherlands. Trust me,that cost more then the part alone.... Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Chevy 51" original Texas truck,,now in Holland
YahamaR1, yes, that stinks, you do get around. At least you get to the states so you can buy some things and not have to pay those high shipping rates.
