Rumors of my death
have been greatly exaggerated. My computer took a ****, but I ran it a
long time without newsgroups. Finally got a new one a few weeks ago, then finally got it configured, no thanks to a friend who has spent a very long time on it, because "he knows a lot about computers." I sat down and hacked it out by trial and error in a short time. Life has been good, and Craigslist is alive and well, managing to pull off some very nice home runs, thank you very much. Yesterday, I picked up a complete Chevy 283, additional Quadrajet intake manifold, extra set of newly reworked power pack heads, starter, a humongous four speed granny truck tranny and bell housing (GM), a 289 crank in need of welding and recutting a journal (or adding a shackel for a boat anchor, an Edelbrock "twisted" 289 Torker intake manifold, Edelbrock valve cover gaskets, a set of 289 heads, some Mustang body emblems, an MG Midget head, new pressure plate and disc, windshield wiper motor and cable drives assembly, A Zenith carb assembly on intake manifold with air box, and a bunch of other asst. MG parts, for $300. Missed youse guys, particularly when I had a question. Hope this works, and finds everyone in good health. Steve B PS. Going to Vegas Wed. for a CT scan on a 5 cm heart aneurysm. Maybe have another open heart operation. We'll see. I wonder if I could ask them to go horizontal this time ........... |
