A wine toast to "Old Tom"
A couple of weeks ago I left the beast with Tom with the general instructions to "fix" everything. This was more a pre-emtive strike against what could disintigrate during the next 150K of SVX cruisin', along with few "it's broke now" items. While the list was 4 pages long, to include all leaks, brakes, timing belt, lots of rotten rubber stuff, all fluids, tie rods, stereo speakers, etc.,etc.; it's too long to mention in "what have you done to your SVX lately?".
Tom kept me posted as "bad stuff" was discovered, & if I wanted to replace the carnage. The bill was itemized down the part used, the cost, & the time (down to the minute) required to do the job.
PLUS I got to feed & play with the dogs while Tom wrenched!
Here's to ya', Tom (glug, glug,)
Ron.
