I'm one of the slow ones on the list. I have read Tom's discourse on
how to organize a tear down at least twice and when I started to take my
68 1600 apart all common sense went out the window. I now have coffee
cans full of nuts and bolts AND NO PICTURES. I'm so mad at myself I
could cry. All is not lost however, I plan to take things slow and I
will get it back to gather ( I have to so I can sleep in the bedroom
again) :=).
Oh well, back to work.....
