Looks as they missed a spot. Nothing a little JB Weld won't fix.

Heh, wish I'd thought of that when I holed the left piston in my 380 earlier in the year :up: :wth:

Good thing the GT has such a generous combustion chamber.....

Those northern Ohio guys.

Did they describe it as "lightly used", "solid motor", or ...?

Would that be the Cleveland area? Only ask because I have already seen a number of very questionable ebay ads. Can't tell what's used, what's refurbished, what's genuine nos, etc. Leaves me a bit skeptical to say the least.

Nice needle work there with that copper wire. You don't see workmanship like that anymore. :roll: :lol:
