The Apache Reclamation place you gave details of was well worth the visit. It isOn Mon, 12 Nov 2007 12:09:18 +0000, Prepair Ltd <prepair@easynet.co.uk> wrote:

Here are some possible places, Peter.
2.2) Phoenix
2.3) Scottsdale
2.4) Tempe
But since they are not links any more, I will email them to your address above.
If you have time when you are in Phoenix, come on down to Tucson and see the
Titan Missile and Pima Air Museums, and take the tour of the USAF aircraft
reclamation center.

The Apache Reclamation place you gave details of was well worth the visit. It is
a small fronted place with a shop reception, but if you go left through the the
next room there's lot of old testgear, then if you go left again, there's a room
full of valves (tubes) and semi's.
Then, we were asked if we had been out back...
There is about 2500sq ft of racked single-storey warehouse, shelves full of
almost everything, including fasteners up to 3/4", pipe fitting, contactors,
bearings, components and so on.
We picked up 400+ pces of a 5-way connector that we use on our work stuff, plus
a 1953-made 1lb copper soldering iton, brand new, plus other stuff.
Highly recommended!
We also did Pima/Amarc Tour on Monday, temperatures got to 93F on the car
outside temp display, so the aircon on the tour coach at 12midday was much
appreciated. Didn't do the Titan museum, my wife wanted to go to the Sonora
Desert Museum and Saguaro National Park after we left Pima.

Yes, the rental companies are always happy to stick you with a gasthey had run out of the

that seems to happen a lot at airports.

Yes, the rental companies are always happy to stick you with a gas
(petrol) guzzler and pretend they are doing you a favor in the process.
When you have reserved a smaller car, the concept of "reserved" would
seem to mean that they ought to have it on hand, but that's not the way
the rental (hire) companies actually operate.
