I'm new to this forum after having creeped it for the last few months. It is probably one of the most entertaining forums out there, particularly the "live from" threads.....thoroughly enjoyable. My name is Al and I hail from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I run a Super Comp car with my son out of Division 5......I own a majority of the car, he drives all of it!

About a month or so ago, I finalized the purchase of what I think will be a fine F/SA Duster out of Mesa AZ. The transaction went well, the seller was amiable, even a VIN# discrepancy was sorted out and corrected.......very smooth transaction. The timing was even perfect for me to look over the car, as I came in time to attend the National event at Firebird (glad the track will continue).

To my chagrin and stress however, I put in an order with a very reputable transport company to pick up the car and after 5 weeks it still sits in the seller's garage with no definitive date for pick-up. Further compounding my woes is the fact my drop off point is near Fargo ND, likely the highest flood zone area in the US right now. As it stands, I'm looking for a new drop off point (Minneapolis, Omaha, Marion SD) away from the flood zones, some committment from a shipping company, the ongoing goodwill and patience of the seller, and a lot of luck!
Fargo's National Open is next month and the Divisional in Brainerd is the weekend after!

I'll end my rant now, as it's not really a way a person should intro themselvers. It feels good to get it off the chest however....thanks for listenin'. - Al S/C 5768
