    Does any one live near Warroad, MN Need help with a Tri-Z rescue

    I have rescued one complete running Tri-Z and two chassis from a salvage yard and now have no way to get them home. I am currently stationed at Fort Benning for OCS and unable to travel. I was wondering if any one was gong through the Warroad, MN area or has any idea as to how I can maybe get them a little closer. The cost of shipping them will destroy my finances and put me in a very bad position. The owner said he can hold onto them for a little while. But I wanted to start trying now. I will be at Fort Sill in Oklahoma in a few months. All I am trying to do is get them a little closer. Any thoughts or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Hey Bass, I will consider that offer. Hold your breath until I get back to on it.


    Thanks SYk. I think that is one of the shippers I have not tried yet.

    Well, I tried the uship thing. So far the offers I have recieved as been higher than the ones I got before I tried them. It has only been a few hours, so I am sure the offers will get better.

    In the mean time, does any one else have any other ideas?

    I'm in the Twin Cities metro area and headed to Michigan in about a month, I might be able to take them to the Chicago/Gary area or leave them somewhere along the way if someone wanted to pickup the chase? Problem is its probably about 5 hours or so from here to Warroad.....

    That sounds like it is a little too far out of your way. However, at least it is a start.

    well, I am working a deal on another one out there. I might be willing to cut a deal.

    Normally, I would love a chance like this. This is the kind of road trip I enjooy. But, my duties here at Fort Benning are preventing me from going.

    I'm in southern MN and could at least hold them for a bit if you need me too. Might be able to work out some kind of shipping also, I would need to talk to the owner of the company I work for. Not sure if I feel like driving 9+ hours to pick it up though. If you can get it close to me like the cities or something I could pick them up and hold them or try and ship them closer to you. Let me know via PM and this thread since I tend to forget what I post in on this board.
