Gary, too bad, you don't offend me, But do you really find this amusing to
send to the list. Since you seem to be above all of us and righteous I am
more than glad to be excluded as one of your recipients from any mailings I
send to the list. I in turn will do the mature thing and not adjust any
filters.
On the brighter side of things, does any one have any recommendations as to
what I might be able to do in order to replace a lens on my speedometer, Has
anyone done this or happens to have an extra lens or speedo that they might
want to sell. Is there a way to take it apart and replace the lens.
Also thanks to Tom Walter for the copies of the door operators, they came in
handy, now I just need enough time to get them installed.
