[AT] WD-45 Rim

[Len Rugen]

I'm right in the middle of Missouri. About 5 miles from 
http://www.mrvsea.com.  Their show starts this week, I need to see if 
someone is selling parts there.  SOmeone else replied from CA, but 
again, freight would be bad.   

I had someone in Tx looking rake parts.  I need to check back in the 
notes to see who that was.  But 2 people in Tx can be a long way apart :-)
