Anybody looking for a surplus ring slot chute?

I just bought a spare ring slot on ebay for $20 +16 for shipping. I have one just like it on my Dragmaster. If you are interested here's the link.

Here are a couple of pics of the one I have.

 

Thats cool ,Im running an old cargo chute on my roadster

 

Thats a really nice looking chute

I like your jacket where can I get one of those?

 

It involves some whining and a payoff. ;-)

 

You be carefull opening that thing in KS. Might end up in my back yard looking for a ride home. I dig it, would look good hangiin from the rafters in my stop.

 

You have no idea how right you are about the wind! I had my daughter take the pics. It had rained and was a bit muddy. With my feet planted I was dragging as the slick ground gave way. I was hollering to her to run to the back of the chute and pull the center of it to deflate it but it took her a bit to understand me. I thought I was going to end up in the plowed field being drug through some serious mud. I never really thought about letting go. I wasn't about to loose my new/old chute.

 

Thanks for the link Kerry,bought me one for the AWB.

 

Thanks Kerry, i just bought one too.

 

'There's no place like home' is what I think of when looking at that picture

Thanks for posting the auction listing, I just picked up one for falfasnightmare's TE448. Come see it at the Meltdown Drags in July!

 

If the supplier runs out contact me, I just signed up for 5 of them.

I just bought one too, will they need to be modified with a spring to use on a car? I have no experiance with chutes.

 

So how many of those chutes have been sold from those seeing this thread. I even thought about buying one but really have no use for it.

The power of the HAMB.

 

Dunno but I should get a commission. ;-)

 

Good luck with that <VBG>

Exactly, I just purchased two chutes and I have no use for them....

Hey, thanks Kerry !!! I sure didn't need one of these....but SURE HAD TO HAVE IT !!!!

 

thanks Kerry i just bought one for the flatie dragster , if anything it will make a cool pic at the end of a run thanks Tim Jones

 

The guy is probably wondering why are these guy buying these old things? Who would want them?

 

What the hell!?! I just ordered one too... I don't have a dragster or a lakes car. Thinking it will look cool hanging from the ceiling!!! Thanks for the tip!

 

I feel a caption contest coming on...

Thats a big ****in chute, my neck hurts already!

 

I bought one yesterday also after seeing this thread. Think I'll attach it to the nephews 51 Chevrolet Bus Coupe; I have new Simpson chute pack left over from the dragster days, but it probably wont be big enough. Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

I see the price has gone up.

 

They had to add in the commision...
I got one before the price hike!!

Got my chute today. There is some corrosion on the clevises that attach the shrouds to the main web but other than that it is pristine. Hope yours are as nice.
