OK I am going to run another 20 antennas. Same deal as before, first come first serve. Payment of $64.00 (includes shipping) to be made to my paypal account rm360@aol.com You can also send payment to me via check but this will not reserve an antenna until the check arrives. Send to Randy Marchetti, True Flow 21602 N 2nd Ave suite 1 Phoenix, AZ 85027 make sure the check is made out to Randy Marchetti NOT TRUE FLOW..... From Monday we will be looking at 4-5 weeks. Please note the time line so your not checking in with me every few days on where the antennas are. Fell free to call with any questions. POLISHED FINISH ONLY......

Thanks

Randy,

I know you just sold your last one from this current order, and I missed out :(

Do we need to round up another 20 buyers before you run another group?

If so, are there any recent new owners that would like to put their name on a list so we can get Randy to run these again? If so reply to this e-mail. Hopefully we can get another 20 in the next few weeks. Let me know if you can do it Randy.

Thanks,
Jason

A member on this board (Randy aka rm360) makes Billet Aluminum? antennas that replace the stock antenna for the radio. They are really sharp! Here is a link showing a picture:

http://www.cherokeesrt8.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=76&d=1146597585

He just sold out of his current batch, and I believe he needs about 20 definates in order to run another batch. If interested, post that you are, and hopefully Randy can help us out :D
