Not yet. He won't sit still. But he's all black.

Cool for sure. I'll never get my Christmas wish. That would be for every Honduh Toyota Kia and Hyundai to "poof" and disappear from American roads and driveways. Where's the red bat phone with the button to make it happen

Looks just like our Gizmo did when we got em. He's 12 or 13 now, was 5 weeks when we brought him home Also have an all black male that's about 10 months older than Gizmo that one is Monster he was 4 mo old when we got him from the county pound Were getting #3 tonite another black 4 months old...

yeah... I grew up on CUBIC INCHES a "5.9 magnum" is still 360 CID!!!!! This "liter" thing has always drove me crazy. As do metric fasteners and Door "cards"

I did my dad's 86 from the front

Huh there's even the adapter plate to put a SB trans sandwiched in there..... That by itself has gotta be worth something There was no chrome on the one I had, I bought a whole 64, /6 and 727 that had been sitting on a dirt, garage floor just to get those parts. I've since sold off the engine...

Selling that one looks like a mistake.... You don't see them like that anymore without needing ALOT of work to get them there

I tend to agree with the op, I don't like chinamade parts either and I try to find parts that aren't whenever I can. Yes raybestos used to be the best but no more. Back in the day you had them, you had Bendix and you had Wagner... All had different grades for each brand of car they offered parts...

That's why if I am not in a bind where I gotta have it "right now" I buy old stock off of eBay. Better quality and usually cheaper too.

Yup the rebulders have the capability to realign the outer ring. Unless you can find NOS you're better to have yours rebuilt vs buying a new/chinamade unit. Damper doctor or damper dudes, I've used them both. 2 different/separate companies.

Got my post card in the mail 2 days ago

I'm right in between day 1 and day 2. I'm a little bit closer to the day 1 stop

I live right between the 1st 2 stops, a little bit closer to the 1st day's stop

Not much help im sure (sorry) but air power is much better for something like that

Eastwood has them. We have an Eastwood store about an hour away, been finding myself there more and more lately, I saw one while I was there looking for something else. They are mostly a mail order type place, but so now have 4-5 stores, I think mine is the farthest west in the US, near Chicago...
