Hello!
Anyone out in the Southwest that can help??

I'm very sorry to say that I cannot help Chris out
in the immediate future.  I have prior comitments
and now a 5 day trip to Cape Cod over the first
weekend in Oct. has balloned into a 20 day
expedition to Phoenix, Cincinnati, Kansas City,
and then the Cape.  My timeframe has been moved
up by a week and with the work that I have already
promised there simply isn't anyway I can do anything
until I get back later in October.

I've been to Sante Fe (and Taos) many times and
I'm sure that Chris would have an enjoyable stay
but we need to offer whatever help we can to get
him back on the road to San Diego.   It would be
almost 6 weeks before a 'rescue' trans from me
would arrive.

I will do some checking and see if there are any
'favors' I can pull over the next few days, however,
when I start calling in those it can get rather pricey.
This Syncro trans will be big bucks to begin with
and with another builder dropping what he is doing
to ship a Syncro trans out ASAP well.... you get
the idea.  I'll do my best but if someone closer can
come up with something cheaper and faster then
let's get the ball rolling.

Sorry Bud!  Like they say timing is everything!
