Good old MCM Management. Their new slogan should be "Coming to an auction yard near you!" They had a good thing going until screwed up on the GM Lansing jobsites. They have since been thrown off the GM and Delphi bid lists. Glad to see Yoder got these things out of his shop. They look great

Technically speaking it's 1 of 15... since 80% of the buckets I had custom made are garbage, and the guy that casted them doesn't answer emails or phone calls...

Eric I still feel bad about that project and this is why I got out of the hobby of making parts. I will make it up to you ... On a a softer note your projects are looking great if anyone can do these its you and no one has put more time in or harder work Good luck with the next build.
