Sell Used Auto Parts

Q.Where does one get a spool of bailing wire? Many, many years ago I worked the back end of a hay bailer or two that used wire. The wire came from a long cardboard tube and was straight as an arrow till you put it into the divider board slots and it was pressed back through the machine. I haven't seen any new bailing wire in many years. I was looking for some recently and found it at the Grange Co-Op. It was "only" SIXTY BUCKS. It was, of course, a 100# spool, and, of course, they would not sell me a portion of one. Wally World and auto parts stores still stock it.

A.I was heading down from the Tonga Plateau (Macha Mission) in Zambia, Central Africa in 1973ish driving a 1949 VW beetle.Heading back home to Livingston and the Victoria Falls, when the engine sped up and the car slowed down coming up a long low rise. Fearing the worst(lost the clutch?) I let the car coast to a stop, and got out to check it over. (still in gear). The right rear axle nut was turning - but that was all. Turns out I had stripped the spline out of the brake drum. After hitchihiking (and walking a good part of the way in 100 degree F temps)about 10 miles to a friend's place, who towed me back with his Kombi, we pulled the drum and found it beyond repair. He knew some Canadian Catholic priests who ran a small trade school just other side of Choma who were "VW Nuts" and had lots of old parts around. Just two of many "Zamfixes" I could tell you about from my years teaching Auto Mechanics in Zambia in the '70s.
