All I can say is 77/81 though Virginia/West Virginia is like the movie from the 80's...... The Neverending Story.

Re: RE: A perfect day....... The only thing that was wrong was the fact it rained during the entire recovery UNTIL we get past the crappy parts of the highway.

It towed like a freaking barge! Thanks for the complement. My biggest concern was people jumping ahead of me and putting on their brakes. Luckily, I kept enough of a cushion of space between me and the cars ahead I was able to downshift to almost stop before I touched the brakes. The **one**...

Oh yeah... it definitely required a "delicate" touch.

Started the day at 0300, did the walk around, fired up George (the deuce) checked all the lights (fluids were checked and topped last night), cleaned the glass, loaded the thermos and when the pressure built, I was on the way..... The trip today was to recover a Ford F-800 with a crane loader...

Ok, next questions, I am limited on time, so how hard is it to rebuild? And I go to NAPA and ask for the 45s kit?

If you ABSOLUTELY want to build 'em, when I get home (I'm offshore till about Thursday) I'll measure and take photos of mine and send them and specs to you.
