Re: A moment of silence please....

Silence? NO! This is an outrage!

Once you destroy these parts... their gone. Chevy's not going to make more of them.

Hopefully, at least, they are going to a salvage yard to be resold. I'm hoping my local salvage yard has a steering wheel like that one. Even with the cracks it would be better than the wheel in my truck. My truck is stone stock and driving with that small diameter Grant just feels... effemminate. It could only be worse if my truck was lowered, too.

We will all share in these scrap parts when we buy a new toaster from China/Vietnam/India. Couldn't give them away, this was a last resort...
