Seriously? He was saying it had a problem the other day. Sent him to my mechanic. Guess he didn't make it.

I thought it was funny when he asked where my drive shaft was. My response "idk, somewhere on 695 in pieces." Lmao. Im pretty sure it shattered. I didnt see it behind me and i saw a bunch of chunks explode. Tow truck driver didnt see it either.
Both guys said $150. One in Frederick one in Westminster.

Guy in frederick said OBO. Might get it for cheaper. He may deliver it somewhere too. He has a trailer. I have his info too.

either way get it - you likely just need the bottom end anyways.
Ok, 98 had 150k and runs fine. Will check under Rescue's hood tonite. If the 98 will work I will prolly go get sometime in next week or so.
