[DeTomaso] Shock recommendations.....

[Asa Jay Laughton]

Hmmm,
I heard from Kirk Evans that the Aristons were adjustable too.  I don't 
believe I saw any kind of adjuster on these when I had them out.  Though 
the Ariston name sounds familiar, I can't say for certain.  They most 
likely are the Telecar as you point out.  My brain is becoming more and 
more convinced that's the name that was on them..... I knew it was 
something very odd.

I have had someone contact me directly with some spare shocks.  I've 
currently offered to pay shipping and work out something more equitable 
later.  I sincerely appreciate the suggestions.  (not to mention the 
"DeTomaso information" steel trap Mike Drew has for a brain)
