[Shop-talk] Fw: Harbor Freight & spare parts(was: MIG Welders 115 v vs220v)

[Karl Vacek]

No citation, but in 1976 I had a friend who had a contract with AMC to make 
the chromed die cast R-A-M-B-L-E-R letters for some model where the dies had 
already been destroyed, but the stock had run out before the time limit. 
Since the last Rambler model was in 1969, it must've been at least 8-9 
years.
