<DIV><FONT size=4>I don't have a horse in this race, never dealt with Mo-Ma, no
first hand experience, no opinion on them. I don't know how serious Lou
was with the comments above, but I do have an opinion about whether people
should be able to give negative reviews on the list, I know vendors work hard
for our business, and we are lucky to have them, but I would like to hear all
sides unedited in this overedited world, and that is one of the great
things about the list, you get to benefit from other's experiences and lessons
here.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>I refuse to read the juvenile comments below about MO-MA
without a rebuttal. About twelve years ago I sent all six of the original
gauges (notice correct spelling) from my 54 TR2. With the gauges I
also sent the tachometer and speedometer cables and fuel tank
float. About 45 days later all were returned in absolutely beautiful
condition - I was awed by their appearance. Now almost 35,000 miles later
all remain perfect in both appearance and operation. To say that the now
deceased Margaret or Joey would say to you they prefer Pebble Beach customers or
treated you like a tier five customer is a crock. I have and always will
recommend MO-MA as the best of the best.</FONT></DIV>

send my original guages to Mo-Ma for rebuild, only to get them back with no
cosmetics to the faces or needle and with the gas guage going bad within the
first driving season. Cost? $700. To be fair, Mo Ma made it
clear, their first priority was to Pebble Beach type customers.
Fine. But as a hobbyist, I don't particularly like being treated like a
tier five customer who was made to wait 6 months for my product back.
Maybe the other guage specialists are
better....<BR><BR></FONT></DIV></DIV></FONT>
