I was told that they did that out of blemished parts scratched and dented stuff. I dont know about the power train Maybe they had a dented shield or something. I heard when the plant shut down and was sold they let alot of employees unload a bunch of stuff. shure woulda liked to been there when that happened.

Rollerman 290 #4 Posted July 19, 2008 Good video Perry...can't go wrong with Cash. Funny you should think to ask though..about the parts thing. In the 2nd addition Martino book it is mentioned that an employee was doing just that & Cecil caught him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

linen beige 14 #7 Posted July 21, 2008 Sorta like the guy that took a wheelbarrow full of sawdust to his truck every friday. Plant security would poke through the sawdust to see if he was taking tools from the factory. He worked there fourty years and nobody ever noticed he was stealing a new wheelbarrow every week.
