Yeah. It's 2012.
But as Joe said just yesterday, DMH set his Salt lake records with Lucas
Ignition. Joe forgot to tell you DMH also used Armstrong Shocks.
Oh. And Joe's fuel injected Le Mans Sprite? It's got both Armstrong rear
shocks and rear  telescopics. 4 rear shocks.....
Fronts? Oh. That would be Armstrong levers.
His 1965 Healey GT Sebring car (BJ8 based)?
Armstrong shocks all round.
Correct me if I'm wrong Joe....
It's 2012. Fit whatever you want. But pleeezssze don't try to kid the rest of
us it's better. On a road car?
If its better? Beat one that is original.
Me? Best ride improvement ever was new seat cushions..
I kid you not.
Sincerely.
Chris
