Man....we need this to happen! I can help ship anything overseas...just PM me if anyone has any trouble or needs help. But I have a tough time moving stuff in the states sometimes. I checked with Stevie G.... I just missed him. I have a 32 frame needing to get to FL from NJ. Cash people...whos outta work and needs a vacation? Does'nt somone need to kick Nads in his ...Nads??? I'll help pay for it! Anybody going South for X-mas?
not too sure if it got enough attention. would be great if it could happen. i think all would benefit! ETHER
I like it. I posed this idea a while back but my ideas run in bunches and this one got trampled by its bigger siblings. I think it would be worth trying.
Since my other HAMB Relay request thread is burried I will add mine here. I bought some '55 chevy doors and quarters back in November and I have been trying to get a trucker to bring them down to Colorado with no luck. The parts are in Green Bay and need to come down to Colorado or Kansas. I could meet you somewhere near I-70 and I-35?? I am willing to offer gas money$$ or beer money$$ for anyone heading South to the Round Up in April. I am flexible. Just let me know. Thanks, Tex
It sounds like a good idea to me. I have been involved in two Relays that worked and one that did not. Jim H
Well That's That! And I was going to see if I could catch a ride or offer a ride to Massoula, Montana or Salmon, Idaho from Ohio to pick up an old Dodge pick-up.
Dude, what Ryan said doesn't mean relays are verboten I've thought about the pros and cons...and there ARE cons, besides the time factor and cost of bandwidth..... I see too many posts about "so-and-so ripped me off" and "I sent my money to such-and-such company and their stuff sucks" Imagine........ " Mr A dropped my parts off with cousin G to be relayed and they never got here" or "it ain't what I was supposed to get" or "that sumbitch switched/bent/broke my parts" I sorta guess the boss don't wanna get into mediation over parts transportation and I can respect that. I'll still offer help when I can(if anybody trusts me)
heading to SC in the end of feb. then to atlanta, then back to milwaukee. empty truck bed forsure, could hook up trailer if need be......
I'd love to see something in the classifieds so they don't get buried. Just make sure there's an "expiration date" or "self-poofing " option
Ahhhhhhh hahaha yes he did. Third hand as well. I vouch Earl's a GREAT man..........however, NO Tio, I will not be driving Hemi parts to Australia. FWIW, I love Marcy and BenD for what they do and getting to see them is a SUPER bonus.
Looks good on paper. Recently was able to get my '64 Olds Ragtop brought down from Cleveland to Atlanta because "Tbirdbrian" had a post on the regular message board section. Not sure if i would have been smart enough to see "empty trailer" anywhere else??? Thanks again to Brian for the long haul and Stevie G for grabbing it and storing it till I got up there. You guys rule! I make regular runs down towards West Palm, and would be glad to help out some So-Flo Hamb'rs. With gas prices going through the roof, this is a smart way to save some precious cabbage. $$ J.T.
I think it's great that folks do the relays, but I don't see any reason to expand on what we already do... I certainly want no business policing them and I think formalizing them would put me in the place to do so.
Well I need to get some surfboards (one in each of the following cities) to Earl Schiebs place in Hartsville TN (outside Nashville) from Hatboro, PA Jacksonville, FL Dayton, OH within the next week or so.
