gaspumpRob sent this for posting. Where there is a WILL, you WILL find a WAY to transport a pump! He bought the pump @ Fred's Show today.

Haha! That's awesome! One more pump and he's cutting a hole out in the floor board so he can see to drive.
Thanks, Nick

In my opinion, the steel he used to build the frame is worth more than the car? LOL! Paul www.severngaspumps.com

If the car had a crane or a lift gate on it, I would probably pay as much for the car as Rob paid for the pump.Please tell me he lives close by and did not travel from the east coast.

I wondered why Rob was forwarding something from Nicole. After talking to him today, he said his battery died in phone/camera.

That's some funny right there, and a definite candidate for a Darwin award. Bet he can scoop a pump at a swap meet and haul it 500 miles for about $40 with that little bomb, while I show up with my big rig dually and it probably costs me 200.00 in diesel. Who's the smart one?
