Re: Survivor vs Restored

In the end I'm kind of glad that Steve Shauger's crew dinged me on it because if he hadn't, I wouldn't have started digging. So far every unrestored car I've found (5 so far) has this bizarrely dated starter from a single batch made on a single day in February 1971! Even though the engines were all made in November 1972 that is still 21 months difference. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img] </div></div>
Steve, another example of anomalies in manufacturing back in those times. Once again, thank you very much for pointing this out, very valuable information.
Bruce, absolutely you can go for a ride, in fact, we will fly you and your family over to the shop after MCACN and you can take it out and drive them to lunch [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
