I'm 350 miles north up in the panhandle but will be getting down there in a couple weeks and would like to get some things to keep busy with this winter.Raymond | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 | Welcome to the 'bolt. American Classic does not have a sales counter. That is the reason I don't use them. A double whammy-sales tax and shipping. I prefer to buy from out of state and pay shipping only.
There are lots of parts you can get from your local parts outlet, too. Don't forget to check them. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 442 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 442 | there's a place in Arlington, think it's Southwest Classics on Cooper Street. I've picked up their business card at a swap meet,and have never used them personally.

I'll likely be down that way first week of December and plan on driving over there to see what I can get. couldn't be over a 45 minute drive from Keller where our daughter lives. he did not have the grease cap for the front hub though. that was one of the items I had hopes of finding but maybe I should give them a call back and see if they might be able to get me one in if I give them a little notice | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 1,636 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 1,636 | If it's a stock 61 1/2 ton, the local parts store should have them.
