I don't really get out there and hunt for this stuff.  I've been collecting for a while and know a few people here and there.  A few weeks back Coke_and_stuff (Joey) was here and had a load in the back of his truck.  I think 3 people stopped him and wanted to know if he was buying or selling!!   

Maybe I need to get an old van and have it wrapped like a Coke 81 to get some attention.

Drove an hour each way in a snow storm for nothing. One of many busts. I couldn't find a thing to spend any money on. Threw him an offer of $200 for the pump and that was about it. Said he'd let me know tomorrow.

Oh well. The search continues

That's the story of my life also. Keep your head up and don't let one bad hunt kill your morale.

     You drove an hour and were there with cash in hand..............and he said he will let you know tomorrow?

     Tell him you will pay him $200 if he delivers it to you  veryangry
