I can be there by morning if I catch the next flight out of Anchorage, 3+
hrs to Seattle, 6 more to get across the US, add 1-2 for the layover, 4 hrs
for time zone changes, and a couple to get a rental car and drive to the
yard. The down side would be getting the parts home, that and the wife
would kill me as I still have a Syncro parts van to scrap plus a running
Syncro to sell. Someone in the area should go salvage it though, especially
the Syncro specific parts that are NLA.
