Duck Blind in shoppe

Post by HowardT64 »

SHe has been in the shop since early Monday morning. The fellow said he would fix it. I have not heard anything so far so I guess that is good news! I think the church will aid me in getting the service paid for. Imma broke son of a gun....disability payments are not that good. I miss seeing my Jeep though, hopefully Ill get her back soon so I can take her for a nice drive :)

Peace :)

Hope they can fix it up for you, and at a fair price.

Probably collapsed lifters... it happens, usually people say to replace all lifters and camshaft, when It happened to the 74 in the 20th century, I only replaced the lifters, and added another 150Kmiles until parked until I find a better body...
