Cost include shipping? US made? I'm in if the mounting holes and threaded plug are included in final product and US made

Shipping cost will be calculated for each buyer at time of shipping. Made in Michigan. , by small casting company family owned since 1962. All machining (also done by a small local company) of holes and threaded plug hole will also be included. My initials will be molded on the inside to prevent these from being sold as originals.

I'm in. Just a thought, posting to the 73-plus parts board may drum up some other buyers to ensure you get enough commitments to make the production run worthwhile....

I would be in for 2, but will have to start saving the cash. Trevor

midunes · 02-01-2014, 11:31 PM

Thanks good old American craftsmanship. Made in a old industrial waste land in call home. Can't wait to have the machining finished and see this one bolted up to a truck.

midunes · 02-03-2014, 09:52 AM

All counted up now between all the posts and other sites looks like 8 are in line for covers so far. Not bad for only 2 1/2 days, but really bad score in surperbowl.

**DeadheadNM** · 02-27-2014, 12:00 AM

TTT - any updates?

midunes · 02-27-2014, 01:52 AM

I only have 12 confirmed interested. Need more interest.

BLT gmc · 02-28-2014, 08:55 PM

I will throw my interest in the ring. I am a little confused about payment. Is the half down due at start of production?
Thank you
Bruce

midunes · 05-16-2014, 08:50 AM

They are done. I have 7 left.
