For many years now, it has been my policy to never even consider a lettercar a parts car. Believe me, that philosophy has been tested recently while trying to find parts for my F convert resto while having 3 more of them back in the storage building! 300ly, Gil [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 2 Date: Wed, 31 Dec 2003 09:53:58 EST From: moparpjf@xxxxxxx Subject: Re: RE: G parts car In a message dated 12/31/2003 9:02:48 AM Eastern Standard Time, lettercars@xxxxxxx writes: For many years now, it has been my policy to never even consider a lettercar a parts car.

I would hate to think that you would lose the Cunningham/Moon rebuild contest for want of a part or two that was sitting in your garage.

The torrid pace they're setting almost takes my breath away. I'd hate to see my 13 year odyssey to restore the C eclipsed. Can we get a year-end update?

While I am thinking of it, I want to wish all of you a HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope that we, and our country, prosper, are healthy, and have a new year that we will all be proud of when 2005 rolls around! Whether I've met you face-to-face, or just know you from our on-line meetings, I've enjoyed talking with you and hope you feel the same about me. Joe Savard, from beautiful Lake Orion, Michigan.
