Maybe we should rename this topic to, daburb rear 1/4's for burbs and panels,since there's only a few of us that seem interested in seeing this happen. Seems like more people would care on this board. Sacrifices are hell aren't they. I've offered eveything to see this happen and it seems like no one gives a sh*t.I'm just a poor working stiff.Two jobs,no life, h*ll I'd get another one if I could help make this happen.What do you think, should I try and get the administrator(sp) to change the title of this thread? Thanks, Roy

Lets keep trying to find a good donor so that we can get the Quarters made for all of the burbs and panels that need the sheet metal.

I understand daburb not wanting to let go of the 1/4's.I'd be very hesitant(sp) to let them out of my hands for that long and to go that far away. I just wish we could come up with a set from anywhere,new,used it doesn't matter. Thanks Roy
