Thanks cort 60

Hey Cort,

Got the Cigars in today and BTW those two are some of the best,, Esp. the Torrano which is still made from Cuban seed tobac.

The Torrano "1959 Exidus" is so named because when Good Old Fidel took over the country he ordered all the cigar shops to be turned over to State Control and the Torra no Family gathered up everything they owned and went to Florida. It is the only true cuban (not counting those still in Cuba) that can trace its seeds back to the country. As you may have noticed they ain't free. About a year ago I was invited to see them be hand made at our local Tinderbox. To see how a cigar is hand made is amazing, the outer wrapper (leaf) wet and streched beyond what you think it can be streched until it is paper thin and wraps well.

Easier to see and type about. 2 great smokes, better than money.

Thanks
Jake

The only fitting thing for this is:

Old custom classic trucks have soul. Their dashboards aren't plastic, and they've survived both the best and worst of what the 20th century had to offer. For the owners of these trucks, it's often the same story. Through both good and bad times they persevered, until one day they could turn the key and roll up in a customized truck everyone with good taste would admire.Custom Classic Trucks

Re: Thanks cort 60

Anytime Jake. I'm glad that I didn't do too bad considering I am an amatuer.

I've cleaned up the filter a little bit:

Also, if any of you haven't seen the orignal fuel filter set-up for the '60 GMC's, here it is:




I'm guessing it was the same on the Chevy's in 1960 but I'm not sure how many years they used this style....anyone know?

Cort,

Also, there is a AC Delco decal that needs to be put on it like in the picture. I have the source if you need, I think they run $3.00.

Hey I'm not seeing the fuel filter one anywhere....

I looked in the GMC/Chevy truck part section but all I can find is oil filter stuff and what not.

Cort,

Email or call them, if I remember I had the same problem. I think it's listed under a different year.
