Yes, there are 2 types of furniture in my book; wood, and that "other" stuff. Same with kitchen cupboards.

Not a real rush to get them shipped; won't be until around the last week of April or early May before I get there. That being said, I will let you know before you ship if I will be earlier; later won't matter, as Dad just puts my stuff up out of the way.

P.S. Good luck with son Aidan's room; tell him when it is done a bunch of your scruffy biker trash friends are going to come down and use his new telly, so make lots of popcorn kid, here we come! ;D

49 sounds great,my man.I really appreciate your father taking part in this movement.I'm actually getting the tools together now to start breaking down the exhaust.I spent all morning with my wife moving things out of Aidan's room for his new furniture.Nothing like carrying dressers up and down a flight of steps..lol....I'm one who buys real wood not that press board stuff so it's heavy,but last forever.....

Sounds good, D1. I already talked to my father, he said no problem, (he always likes to help out) so we can make this work.

Hey 49..I live in NY,,,10940.I haven't broken down the assembly of the pipes just ,yet.I've honestly been busy between shopping for the upgrade of my sons room and working on my drifter.My sons going through the transition of the kiddie room to the "Big Boy room" as my wife and I call it...lol.You know he has to have a longer,taller dresser w/mirror,tv has to go from the tv stand to flat screen on the wall etc.,etc.It's tough being a 6 yr. old now a days.Anyway's my plans are to start breaking the exhaust down tomorrow at some point.Then I'll get shipping materials for packaging purposes and so on.My plan is to have this completed and ready to be shipped by the end of this month.I'll pm you to work out the details and such when this is completed and NTL gives me the go ahead.Thanks for your help on this 49....it is greatly appreciated....

Hi, Drift1; 49Reo (Fred) here. If you disassembled the exhaust system, would it be cheaper to ship to Montana 59870 zip? That is my fathers place; I had a set of V&H Longshots shipped there last year, wasn't too bad by UPS (can't remember exactly how much, but not too terrible) I realize the stock setup weighs quite a bit more, so maybe that would tip the scales towards the poorhouse a bit. Where abouts are you located? Just want to see if any of my other out(in)laws live around there, where if one of them is going to be headed towards Montana we could lower the shipping costs.

Regards,
49Reo

P.S. PM me if you don't want to divulge your whereabouts where Ratman can find them.....lol

  I use the bus regular to send stuff to my sister about 5 hours south of here.....take s2 days or over nite.....cost is by the size of the item and the weight. Not sure of the charges down there.....

I know 49 has volunteered his help with the transportation on the movement for the exhaust for NTL,but I was just wondering has anyone used a bus company for doing this.If so how does this work?I mean what do they charge you...a regular bus ticket just like you were taking a fare.Just curious on this.

DC....It's probably cheaper to ship to Mexico as well,my man.

My truck was made in Mexico.  No major problems after 10 years and over 100k miles.

The only people who benefitted from that was the folks who closed their factories and moved them south.

NAFTA actually saved me $7000.00 back in 1994...I was living in CT and wanted a Jeep...research showed them selling for same price in Nova Scotia as in CT...$21,000...BUT at that time exchange was 33% in favor of American dollar...so I took $14,000 north and returned with a brand new Jeep. No duties, no taxes at the border.  ;D
