Purvis Bros on 228 in Cranberry has M1. Been buying it there for years. They are the local VP distributor.

Any dirt tracks near you or know anyone running late models or sprints? Those guys usually get 55 gallon drums dropped at their doors from people like Purvis or others.

Just be careful to get it when the drum is open so it's not water, and that that they didn't add the top end lube yet (Klotz or whatever) ....

Not that it likely helps you, but VP has a program now where you can preorder fuels and have them delivered to some events (NMRA / NMCA). As I understand, you could order a 5 gallon can, show up at the event and your fuel would be there.

Methanol has only 1 carbon, not 4 :)

I heard back from Purvis Bros. They do not ship methanol, but they do sell it on-site for $3.99/gal. Bring your own container.

I guess now I just need some containers and an excuse to go to Cranberry. Montichello's Pizza is pretty awesome, and the kids love Fun Fore All...
I wonder if my wife would be comfortable hauling the whole family in the car with 10 gallons of methanol?

In all seriousness that is an awesome price. It looks like I'll be buying from them at some point.

come up for one of the victory cruises to show off your focus, we usually have a nice roush focus that shows up

then go to monte cello's for your pizza and then to Purvis brothers for your other fix

**sutyak** · 03-11-2015, 11:10 AM

For comparison,
Purvis Bros is $3.99/gallon
Boost Juice is $18/gallon, not including shipping.
Washer fluid + HEET comes out to about $16/gallon.
Ebay for a 5 gallon container is $16/gallon, shipped.

I'll definitely be driving up to Cranberry, unless GOT SVT delivers.

That is awesome. Their meatball pizza is amazing. I lived near cranberry for a year while working at Westinghouse. Very nice area. I'll look into the cruise thing.
