Would anyone in the Brooklyn Park area be able to pick up a couple of 66 Manual?
(Preview)
A guy in Brooklyn Park has a couple of manuals on 66 chevelle that he would sell to me. He would rather have someone pick them up than mail or ups them. Not sure where he lives, but the ad on craigslist says Brooklyn Park. Though maybe you could just bring them to the meeting in Jan at Karls. Thanks.

Ok so I really need to stay off craigslist. I bought an engine running test stand.

It looks just like this one but the gas tank is a little different on m...
