Great news on the carb.......but I notice you are from Dodgeville....
Use to be in a sleeper operation from 2002 to 2007, my partner and I were in Dodgeville everyweek, when we had that run. We went to Land's End to pick up our load. I think that the scenery from Madison to Dodgeville, is one of the nicest I have ever seen. Especially when the sun would set, it was beautiful for sure.
They were just building the Super Walmart when we got off that run, and there were housing developments going up all over. At the time, I told my wife, I would like to retire there, (along that stretch of highway) but it is sure bitter cold during the winter....
Didn't mean to go off topic, but it's not everyday you find someone who is from Dodgeville WI, being that the town and population are so small, compared to other areas.....

Lars finished my carb a couple weeks ago and I'm still smiling
I could not have been happier with his service.

When I first contacted him He told me a 2 week turn around. It was 3 weeks from when I sent it to when I got it back. He keeps you informed of where he's at in the process. I would recomend him to anyone.
