Maybe i'm a paranoid cheapskate......after all I do not
trust anyone to work on my vehicles...but the mopre I think
of it as ai look at the midget, I really want that Walker
Bonnet, and if I'm going to be paying $900. for it i will
be down there presonally to pick it up and confirm it's a
good one....all in good time.....I'm tempted to do that
first before the mechanicals...but that's just plain beyond
my means at the moment..
I want to be in on who actually goes and get's one first to
get their impression on fit and finish
