Re: Steering Wheel for 5 ton Wanted

OUCH! A Chinese steering wheel in my Vietnam Era Deuce? NO, No, no - It
just won't happen. I need the real deal, US Made in the shade, green stuff.

Anyway, I prefer the "house special soup," which has won-tons, plus all
the left over stuff that didn't get used from the previous week. This is
better known as 2 ton soup, as you get twice as much as won-ton.

In any case, please send Art his "heavy wheel" first. If you have
another one (the lighter one) I would like to purchase it.
