Default Re: Just the Bolts & Nuts

Some piss & moan about the cheep China bolts & nuts, BUT think of times, out on a tour, when someone was able to get back "ON THE ROAD AGAIN" because somebody "just happened" to have some old cheep assed China bolts or nuts, rumbling around in the bottom of their tool box!!!
I tire of rhetoric, like, "If it's made in AMERICA, it's TOP QUALITY"! (B.S.!) Some American made stuff "may" be JUNK, also! Judge parts on their QUALITY!
"Original is better"--NOT ALWAYS! Some old original stuff "may" be worn out/corroded out & beyond reseurection, except by a MIRACLE from SOMEWHERE!
If I found an ooold set of points, in an ooold moldy cardboard box, in an ooold HEN HOUSE for 27 years, would I clean & use them, jist 'cause they were ORIGINAL? LAWSY MERCY NO!!!
