Well its so true this whole deal is slowing down and everyone is worrying about where to get or
what part fits.Well if we dont start working on this together we will not have to worry about
those parts.More time and space was spent on Insurance and titleing then this issue.Again if we
dont start working on this titles insurance and all that will not be needed.Importation and
delmilling has to be worked on.
