Plan on making something decent with different levels. Prob some sort of tubing and boards. Definitely need more display room.

Need it to come apart and store flat to fit in the truck easily. Trailer is a definite pia to bring unless I get another space again. Prob 8' long 5-6 tiers and around 8" wide shelves. Should be easy to make friend has a decent tube bender I can use. Prob 1" electrical conduit will do it fine. Would like to put out 120-150 distribs. PIA to go through bins looking for the ones not on display. And easy to throw a tarp over fast. Should not be hard. Think of a wide stairway.

All I need is another vehicle. Still trying to figure out how to store the trannys I have coming in a few months. Should come like these.

Taking a big risk on these hopefully it pays off. SB 727 long shaft, no converter rebuilt for military.
 
So I need opinions. As I said last night, my wife lost her 10 month old Corgi thanks to a car. Wife is very tore up, one because she died and two, because she saved for that dog for nearly 2 years.

I’ve been all over the web and making phone calls, I’ve found a 5 week old corgi that is about 7 hours away at a breeder. She’s more than what we paid for the other but not by much. Similar markings and colors as the one we just lost.

My question is, will it actually help my wife grieve and move on or would it make I worse? She(the dog) wouldn’t come home until mid September so there’s some time before I have to tell my wife.

I store the transmissions as they are mounted in the car. So horizontally. I have seen people store them with the bellhousings face down and the tailshafts vertical but I’ve always worried that would put strain on the front pump and seals. That’s why when I buy a transmission that’s used, I always plan to rebuild it.
 
No tarps! @&$#@!!!~!!~!
Box lid or cover that comes down over the sides.
Then you can put a top over that for good measure, but shouldn't need it.
Tack on a waterproof canvas.
Put the cover and secure and done.

I would wait and see what happens, she might not want another or she will find one somewhere she will fall in love with.

I would give her a bit more time before committing to another.

20 in crates already. Looking for a container on the cheap to put them in with a de humidifier. The roof thing might just stop the container though.

She’s already said she does. She’s partially upset because she thinks it’ll be a long ways off. But that’s to my car fund, I can swing it
 
Typical Carlisle usually have one good storm Friday or before then hot as hell. This year there was pretty mild though. Just that great flood messed it all up.

Make room reservations early.

They are building a new hotel supposed to be done mid year next year. Think it is across from one of the parking lots. Keeping an eye on it. I may do one of the cabins at a state park or get a room out of town. Online reservations aren't available yet at most of the hotels. Suppose I could actually call one of them lol.
 
Not sure what state park is near there. They could use a few more close hotels for sure.
