His dad knows someone who will rent them a flatbed for the day for $50 so they'll probably just go pick it up themselves.

My dad knows the service manager for a cadillac dealer, and they're gonna let us borrow one of their car trailers...

Wes, I've been away from the board for a while, and when I figured out what's going on in this thread I was stunned.

Your car! You poor guy. How could fate and destiny be so cruel? Who knows, however, if this didn't prevent some weird and twisted catastrophe from occurring later.

True story: My cousin was cussing her normally perfect auto because it stalled at the red light just when the light turned green. Right then an 18-wheeler came barrelling through the intersection, horns blaring. She would have been cheez whiz in a can if things had happened differently.

The NICO community has really rallied for you, hmm? You deserve it. Thanks to you, even newbies like me learn to appreciate their old Qs.

Hope all turns out well. School first, cars second, okay?

Wes check the oil pressure before you make any decisions.

Agreed. I just found out about "Stinsons Crimson" and this news bites but Wes, surely you will recover just fine.
