Default Shout out to Dan (MosportGreen66)

I recently made one of those "what was I thinking" purchases on ebay. Set of NMW tow bar with all the pins, free wheeling hubs, and even the original NMW narrow wheels with skinny tires. Just too good to pass up.

Problem: parts were in NJ, and I am in OK, and seller was unwilling to ship.

I don't blame him; pretty bulky.

Solution: Dan.

He was close, so he picked up the parts for me, then packaged them (way better than needed) on a pallet and shipped them to OK for me.

What a guy. I have experienced kindness from more than one car guy before (Scuncio comes to mind... he looked at a car for me in Michigan), but it is sure nice to know the true "car guys" are still out there.

Hopefully, I get to pay this forward.

Dan, and brother Dave, have helped me out in the past also. They are stand-up guys and a credit to the younger generation in our hobby.
