Subject: RE: [s-cars] samco gp
s-car hosers,
one of the questions JaMu brought up to be sorted out was
'do we have enough interest in getting a gp together?'
i for one would get into a gp for a set of hoses. seems
like the hose replacement is something most of us wait
for (until we've got a leaker), then our options are few.
best method of ship? we probably have some experts on
the list, eh? but it is usually cheaper getting anything
shipped via a slower method. my thoughts were to ship to
the gp-lead by a slow boat, then UPS (fed-ex) to
purchasers.
i've never hosted a gp, but if there is enough interest i
could (i'll probably regret this) host the purchase. of
course i'd be seeking help from anyone who has done a gp
before.
is there any others interested in new hoses?
