I'm actually looking for one of these... cheap though.. cheap cheap
cheap.... Stripped out would be ok as well, as long as the glass is still
in it. Looking on the west coast if anyone see's any, let me know. I am
aware of the ones in Barstow in GL. But I'm not in any rush, to find a
cheaper one.
Thanks!
