Can't tell if the "turn their own wrenches" comment was for me or not, but so you'll sleep better at night, although I am not a mechanic by trade, I own more tools than Tim Allen and have rebuilt engines & done quite a lot of my own fixing over the years. When time is of the essence, I regularly request the advice and talent of people who are 100 times more knowledgeable than me in particular areas. Now if I could just get someone to bequeath me a portable, two-post car lift.............
Peace & love, man!

LOL no, that signature was set up a while ago and shows up on all of my posts. Most of us have to farm out some kind of work. My Demon is off getting painted by right now because I don't have paint skills or a booth and my paint guy won't let me help :crybaby:

What I can't stand are the people that throw a bunch of money at a car and have nooooo idea what they paid for. The wife of a buddy spent $18K on a '68 mustang. She prances around every car show she can find bragging about it, but when you ask her how many cubes... blank stare. Happy that she's into cars, but wouldn't let her drive mine :)

The fact that you're on this site shows that you care about the nuts and fasteners. Besides, you have a 72 Swinger: insta-respect for another Dart fan. Our cars share a lot of parts, so don't be surprised if I ask you a question or two.
