Well, the Ghia fron clip is finally on its way. It is at the freight terminal.
Without the help Roy Kohrogi and FASTBACKDON, it never would have happened.
Don put in many hours, many phone calls, and pulled a few favors to make it happen.
My hat is off to Don.
Thank you very much, Roy Kohrogi, and Don Finley.

Cool, hope it arrives safely

Well, Don said he put "DO NOT STACK" stickers on it. And it is wrapped in cardboard and banded to a skid. But you can still see what it is. Hopefully, some idiot dock worker won't stack anything one it, or put a towmotor fork thru it.

Sounds like some other stuff I have shipped. Nothing ever happened.

Otherwise they can pay out on the $10,000 insurance! 8)

If I had gotten the phone call soon enough, I probably could have had it today. They called at noon, to confirm the cashiers check was there.
I will get it now tomorrow. :D :D :D :D :D :D

Thanks again Don. Tell Kathy I owe her too.

Not yet, The only time I can get together with him is on Fridays, and lately I have been spending Fridays at the hospital.
