I will be there to look, not showing. Always a great show. Wilson Bank is a great community business and I love their interest in the community and for promoting the hobby. Lots to do and see for everyone.

Darell, I buy my evapo-rust from my local advance auto with 20% off. If you sign up for email, you can buy online with the discount and pickup in store @ $18 a gallon.

I did a similar thing last time. I used the online coupons and made separate purchases of the gallon jugs because most stores only carry one or two jugs. I think it was 40% off coupon at the time for each sale? Just google "advance auto coupon". It usually gives you a link to the "retailmenot" site and find the highest $ or precentage coupon they have. Usually it's a 30% off or a $25 off a $75 purchase. Once in a while you'll see a $40 off an $80 purchase.

Does anyone know the significance of the "D" that is stamped on some shift rods. I have had many sets of 69 Z rods and most 1-2 and 3-4 rods do not have any stamping at all, I do find the reverse rod has the 5771 stamp. I have 1 set of 69 Z rods that does have the "D" stamped on each one.

Be careful with the rust remover stuff on the brake booster. It will remove the original zinc plating (or what's left of it).

Of the many dozens in my inventory this is the ONLY one that had the &quot;L&quot; with the circles around it though there seems to be many more circle than yours has. If it meets with your approval PM me your address and I will put it in the mail tomorrow.

----Rick and Darrell,,,Had a few minutes and thought Id go thru my 1/4-20s box. Found two large Ls with no lines. One very small L with no lines. One medium sizes L with no lines. An R with a circle around it. One with just circles. One with EL and the correct circles. Another EL with slightly different circles, and one thats totally blank. All correct size thread and length and washer as pictured. A bunch more of course that arent remotely close like, of all things some Mr.Gaskets, and SEMS. Darrell, if any work for you just say the word.....Bill S

Did it originally have the big smear print? Reminds me of when I hired my 10 and 5 year old to do the paint daubs on my suspension. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Thank You so much for the reply. I did read of a gentleman in Louisiana that used a similar product periodically on his car to help keep the rust at bay.. My car does not get out to often about 1200 miles a year, never see's the elements. so was looking at a non evasive way of preserving this thing with out damaging the original coating.
