I remember the scandal and people saying they were no good. I wish I'd bought a bunch of those 'no good' carburetors back then. I was making aobut $50 an week in '57, but still could have bought a few and stored them. I knew they worked and my friends did, too. Funny, how you never think something will be valuable when they're so common...or at least I never did.

A guy tried to give me a rust-free'37 Chevy coupe one time, just to get it out of his yard. It would run, too, but it had two .45 caliber bullet holes in the right door...I didn't want to mess with that!


Lord, let me live long enough to do all the projects I have planned!
