Rex Salvage is an unclaimed freight place in Oh. One time they had a
Vanagon 4sp trans. with a sold tag on it for $150. It was shipped from a
rebuilders and had a little bit of damage on the front of the housing
where it had been dropped. It could have been put into a new housing and
saved someone some serious $$$. I try to visit this place when I can.
