TX HAMB flathead relay - Maps and everything

Can anybody help.

I have a complete flathead and******* in one piece in Coleman TX. I need it to be in Largo FL before the guy who's storing it for me trips over it too many times and shoves it outside.

I tried the freight companies, they want WAY too much to ship this thing (more than it's worth).

If anybody from TX is going to the Turkey Rod Run in Daytona in Nov. or coming West and has room in a pick-up or on a trailer, please let me know. I can meet you anywhere in the outer red circle (about 6 hours away from me) in FL with my Pick-up and a cherry picker to transfer from one vehicle to the other.

I'd be willing to pay a reasonable amount towards getting it closer, but I don't know what condition the block is and don't want to waste too much money finding out.

Here's the promised maps:

 

I'm gonna get a complex, BTTT

 

52 views, <sniff> I've got big bottle of pills here... BTTT

 

i'm sure that those other guys are just like me; curious, but not in a position to help.

 

Here is the best I can do. (For now) Coould get it to Shreveport in 6-8 weeks.
I could go get it and store it just to the north of the D/FW Airport.
This would give you time to figure out your schedule.
Gets you 150 + or - closer for now and about 300 closer in 6-8 weeks.

 

It looks like its only 3 hours away from the Kontinentals day at the drags in Temple. Maybe someone could relay it to the drags and then another could bring it to your outer circle.

Preferably not out into the Gulf..., it may be mistaken as a drug transfer and shot out of the water! Although the engine would be towed into the nearest Florida DEA office as evidence and then you could just pick it up at the office!

But I don't know how long you'd have to wait or if you would have to bail it out?

Worth a try!!! Anyone going to the drags that might have room in their rumble seat?????

FuelFC,

Shreveport is closer than Coleman, I could combine a long weekend in 'Nawlins and flathead retreival. If you are serious, I could get you more information, PM me.

 

Yes I am*****ing serious. I am sending you PM with the contact info. Might cost you some boiled peanuts though....

 

Boiled peanuts, what flavor? hell, I'll buy every flavor on the way, how bout some gator jerky too! whoo hoo!

 

If some one is comming to Cruisin the Coast next week I could pick it up and store it for a while in Lucedale, MS (just north east of Mobile) till you can get it.
