Here is why I am asking.
I bought this very cool vintage hood on ebay:
Ebay hood
the seller won't ship. He doesn't mind holding it for a while.
I figured SOMEONE would be attending from around here (I am in OKC area), and could pick it up. I would gladly pay for your time. I can meet your on your route if you are coming down I-35. I am just minutes away.\
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I guess as a last resort, I would also consider selling it to a member in the Chicago area for exactly what I paid.
