[DeTomaso] Rear Wheel Bearing Tool /ultimate fix?

[adin at frontier.net]

Hi kids,

In my ramblings I have come across some folks that would be happy to  
build new uprights with a modern service-able bearing solution for  
Panteras.  They just happen to have all the new gizmos to spit these  
out.  (computers, cad lathes/milling machines, packing tape dispensers  
. . .everything!)

Any interest?
