Title: what parts should we start looking for and keeping
Post by: joelj on July 14, 2006, 09:30:27: HI group,

Just a thought. Our pagoda parts are really starting to get harder to find and becoming very expensive. What parts, in your opinion, should we keep spares of just incase sometime in the future you would need the parts.

For example, would it be a good idea to have a spare engine or transmission? Just in case yours starts to fail and you would have to get parts from it to keep your beloved pagoda running? Of ocurse this assumes that you can get these parts for a fairly good deal.

thanks

Joel
