"99.9% sure that the vehicle will run fine with a new fuel pump, carburetor work, etc." Ha! Ever work on Brit side draft carbs? I wouldn't touch one again. Beautiful cars, though. I only climbed in one once, my foot would push the brake pedal with the gas pedal, tiny thing inside.

Same thing happens to me in BMW's. The pedals are way to close together.

No big deal, didn't hurt my feelings. Not bashing the dude just passing along what happened.
Hey Jack, need a hug after that?
