I'm in Sheridan, Oregon. If you've never heard of it, it's about 30 miles W-Nw of Salem; and 55 miles S-SW of Portland. Unfortunantly the only breaker bar I can get is a 3/4" drive; and the socket is about $18. (in Sheridan). If I'm going to purchase a socket for a wrench I don't own, I might as well buy the $30. star wrench at Napa. That way I'd have it to keep. Opening a museum is not cheap. You guys restore one or two vehicles. Imagine a couple of dozen, plus a monorail, locomotives, railcars, trollies, horse-drawn wagons, tractors, airplanes (when we get one), etc. You can see why I'm not ready to fork over $30. for a wrench I'll use once every few years. If any of you are near here, I'd really appreciate borrowing a 15/16th.; or if you have a tow truck, or know how to free up the locked brakes, please come HELP! We have been given a couple of 46 somewhat parted out chevy pickups; and any help getting them here from WA would make for some parts available for some of you. Don Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!

How about hosting a truck pull as a fund raiser for your museum? There are organizations which run those events and they are a lot of fun. A classic truck show with trophies, cotton candy, sausages. Lots of summer chrome. Real Americana. !!! On May 29, 2007, at 3:24 PM, Don Kirk wrote: I'm in Sheridan, Oregon.

Most of the sockets and other tools I plan on rarely using, I get at the swap meet. Can't go wrong there.
