Get him an easy one for a change

EASY ONE!

I have given him 6 chassis all perfectly cleaned and recapped. Then if they don't work, he gets them.
I dont see him stripping the cabinets before he gives them to me. He is lucky I like him and like doing the cabinets. That silvertone is a hard one for sure....

Dont worry, I have a bunch of chassis for next time, Muahahahaha! Icon_twisted

Where the heck are you Mike?? get off ebay and respond. Icon_lol
