Default Re: Thank you to Bubba

No idea how I learned this stuff back in the 80s and 90s with no internet. I had about 6 or 8 books back then. They were great books and I wore out the covers. It is a huge asset for us living in rural areas with no clubs etc to gain the specific knowledge about unusual engines like the flathead V8 just by opening a 'page'. Pretty much a miracle where I come from. Many thanks to Bubba (who is a very fine individual... Mac Van Pelt, another) for sharing their knowledge with a bunch of guys that just like owning and fixing and driving beautifully designed and built machinery from a past generation. Hats off to ya! Thanks, GB in Olga
