Re: Fw: Hurst shifter rebuild

[Tom Watters <tomwatters@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dodger,

I wasnt trying to chase you off the site nor cause problem like this.  I 
just didnt feel you had assessed my situation correctly.  I was just 
responding as I thought I was being singled out as something that wasn't 
accurate.

I do value your posts, and I have seen you on here for years.  I think 
it would be a loss if you quit posting on the 62 to 65 list in general. 

Please accept my apologies.
