<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: njsteve</div><div class="ubbcode-body">It seems like no one did. 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]

Scott....nope! No need for that. We appreciate the offer, though!

Since we're only a few hours away, We'll come and visit. We haven't been to SoCal in a while (Hopefully we'll get out there before MCACN of next year-actually shooting for next February) and need to visit with all the SoCal car crazy folks out there.

When the car (and you are ready) just let us know.

BTW, We'd let you guys drive [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img] that's good enough for me (us)!
