s.....those cars work for a living and he wanted them to be reliable

If i'm renting cars especially in this case. i expect them to be 100% original.

[.:PROZAC:..]

really? I expect them to be 100% comfortabel and working...you're not renting them to go to a car show.

[MG Man]

exactly!!!!!
You don't want to rent one of those cars for a wedding, for example, and it breaks down.....the owner of those cars is in business to make money....nothing wrong there.....

Granted the ones that he got in original condition, he maintains in original condition. The ones with japanese engines were acquired as non runners or with out engines etc

[cinco]

considerin the people renting them wont even know what a carb looks like i dont give him wrong, the average person wont even know what is under the hood when they drive it anyway

[Shortie]

This iz what my first baby had.................

[Advil]

zeeshan66, when u rent a car to go to a wedding

I know a few men who would sell their mother for the latter.
I just exchanged one of the former for a sidedraught manifold for the Kent 1600. Love the thought of using the draughts, but I wish he had asked for cash instead...
