Due to the dearth of transmission cores in my area, my very real need for a lot of them so that I can do my clinics and continue with inexpensive repair work, and the cost to ship transmissions, I am considering buying up piles of them in several locations all over the country and renting a truck to go pick them up in one big run. I can get 7 days off in a row from work, and this will take a bit to organize, but if it could work out I could also swing by and say "Hi" to a lot of you that I havent seen in a while or have not met.
Does this sound feasible? Any input to reduce cost and increase effectiveness is welcome. Also, if you have a hoard of cores, hit me up. I will buy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I wonder if I can time this around events? PNW, SoCal, Australia - these parts are needed for your clinics! If I cant get more parts, I can still do clinics, but people will need to buy new parts and the cost will be more than double what I charge. |

A few years back I was looking at a cheap NX2000 in a city a few hundred miles away. Posted on Craiglist I needed a car moved and actually got a few good offers from guys that make frequent trips.
Or consider a minivan. Pull the seats, cheap hf tarp, cut a 4x8 for the floor to protect the inside and suck up oil. You could also use it to strap down the trannys. Would get better mileage and not too pricey if you go rent-a-wreck. |
