Not sure, they just told use that they were going to some giant road project that was gonna go from one side of Africa to another. I also think it had to do with some big mining operation or somthing like that.

Let me see if I can't wrack my brains for where they would be building a road like that... Probably somewhere central Africa.

Just wondering Chris,
The tractors that come in burned from fire...how does that affect the rebuilding job? That is...I always thought fire would ruin the characteristics, (hardness, brittleness), of the metal. Re-temper the parts that require a certain metal hardness? What do you guys do?

If anything is in question, it gets replaced.
