Re: [FWDLK] Dodge Fuel Pumps

[Chris Hullinger <hullinger@xxxxxxx>]

I'll second what TFM said about Then and Now Automotive.  I was buying  
good used pumps every 2 - 3 years or so for my former '58 Coronet.  I  
finally got wise and Called Then and Now, shipped my pump and got it  
back by the end of that same week.  All for not a whole lot more than  
one of those good used pumps  If I recall, the price was somewhere  
around $115 and it has been bullet proof.
