rods are correctly set. Of course you will teach him not to tail gate and how
to use the engine compression to slow down. I talked to Skip and in support
of this new young driver he has a offered to rebuild the water pumps, provide
a 3 lb check valve, rebuild the coil, clean and adjust the distributor and set it
to original Ford specs on a Ford~Heyer strobe machine. He will do this at no
charge. This is a one time offer and is open for two weeks from now. This is
an offer you don't want to miss.
Contact Skip at [email protected] G.M.
Hi GM - Thank you very much for Skip and your generosity!! I'll get in touch!
