Success! Got it pryed free with a long skinny screwdriver. Then I worked it towards its hole with a couple pieces of leftover solid copper wire. Used them like chopsticks thru a couple deck holes while grabbing it with the needle-nose Vice-Grips. Once locked on, it only took a couple twists and she gave it up. I was agonizing over what I was going to do if I couldn't free it... Once again, thanks Frank for your ideas and encouragement. You're a great friend and a treasure of information for myself and everyone else here on the Wire <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

It will be awesome when it is done. I am still trying to come out there soon. I worked on my day off this week. It helps the small paychecks some. I still have th skids and bolts you wanted in the back of my Montero. They have been there for a couple of months now. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />
I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.

I've got a pair of boxers bought in 1968 that went to Woodstock, and there's no way you can top the stories in that pair. Left home with $50 and a QP, and came home with $32 and an empty baggie, hitchhiked both ways, and probably had as good a time on the road as on Yasgur's farm. The best ride was with a High Amish farmer on his way from PA to Lawrenceburg TN to buy some special seed in a black 54 Chevy with all the chrome painted black.
