First of all................ I'm really sorry about Craig. He's been thru enough already ! I don't know why the wagon died on you like it did..... I thought the fusable link only got fried with a power surge or excessive cranking and battery drain. Good luck f…

Randy, You got a mention in this issue.............. well, sort of !!! There's a big article on the red Corvette wagon that Mike Guyette sold to a guy in Australia ! The Australian guy talked to you at Carlisle in 2008 and you guys sent him to talk to Mike. He…

Randy, I thought you'd "GET ER DONE" this time ! When I got a rebuilt master cylinder from VB&P, I never could get any brake pedal at all.............. got a $16.99 rebuild from Autozone and had brakes in no time ! Also, the vacuum "thingy" on their rebuilt bo…
