Hi Monique: The package arrived this morning. Thanks very much for your help in the matter.
Kind regards…..Robert Morrison (Vancouver)


Robert Morrison, you gave us nice words about the arriving of the parcel
to our e-mail address, but way not to this "fabulous" MLU forum ?

Dirk, (10.000) KM away from you !

Thumbs up MLU Forum....Godsend!

Yes Dirk, your right! I should have paid homage to the forum, whose talent and contacts world wide, remains priceless. Where else could you find a forum/GPS system able to track the elusive Dirk Leegwater to the out reachs of rural Ontario.....right down to the legion(s) he's quaffing a few beers in with his CDN buds. Parts are here and installed. Many thanks....Robert

Default As speculated....

Dear Dirk was in Acton.... fit as a fiddle and looking for bargains like all of us.

Thanks to MLU we know how to track him down.

Safe trip back home Dirk.

Default Dirk Leegwater again and again and again!!!

George: Dirk's shipment arrived within a week of the courier picking it up, plus or minus a day. What pissed me off, was the customs I had to pay on the parts $75.00. This is no reflection on Dirk and his shipping costs, but I always thought there was am exemption on vintage/antique vehicle parts coming into Canada. I'd be open to hear from other purchasers of "overseas" parts.

All parts fit perfectly and the 3 Tonner will be back on the road within a few days.

Now.....for another point, which of you guys knows how to post a picture on the MLU Forum. I need a volunteer with an email address cuz....I'm going to pull a MLU dirty On Dirk! Robert
