  • The fuel lines were a no brainer. I did not even have to sell Terry on those. He was on board with that from the get go. The new gaskets are an absolute, the OEM correct carburetors are of course a detail item of choice I leave to the customer.

  • Normally I will not perform a task unless the customer does not want to spend the money to do it right. Some times I will usually just tell them to get lost and go about my other work. In this case I decided to take advantage of Terry's attitude abou...
