Mark,
You are correct and would like you to encourage people to donate to the
cause.
All I know is that Britt has this disease where there is no known cure.
Maybe we can again ask BDub (Billy Massey) to see if he can come up with a
way we can donate to this cause
I'm sure we can print up a list of donors and have it put on this recorder
holder so others can see what the true reason for this is all about.

This is what the GMC looked like as Britt and his 3 college buddies
were driving it from Denver to LA about 17 months ago. Like I say in
the video, these guys were crazy...

Jim,
I'm not sure which engine it is. It is a '78 Royale so I'm thinking 403.
He also ruined the flare nut on the fuel line so I'll need a new fuel line
from the pump to the carb. I remember when Caudill owned this coach
(Pacific Cruisers). It was one of the best. Alan really stripped the
threads out of the fuel inlet on the carb body so this one will have to be
helicoiled in order to be rebuilt. Otherwise, it worked quite well. Good
running motor. I'll call later on today.
Steve
