[DeTomaso] front brake pad retaining clips needed

[Mike Drew]

Mike,

Remember the scene from Apocalypse Now after they encounter the tiger in the jungle, and the one boat crew member freaks out and screams over and over, “NEVER GET OFF THE BOAT! NEVER GET OFF THE BOAT!”

The Pantera corollary to that is, “Never throw away Pantera parts!”  Even if you don’t need them anymore, someday somebody else might.  And who knows, someday even YOU might! :(

Sorry I can’t help you this time—although I have a houseful of other people’s cast-off parts for just this sort of reason, I don’t have the caliper springs. Fortunately they aren’t expensive.....

Mike

   Mike,

   Remember the scene from Apocalypse Now after they encounter the tiger
   in the jungle, and the one boat crew member freaks out and screams over
   and over, "NEVER GET OFF THE BOAT! NEVER GET OFF THE BOAT!"

   The Pantera corollary to that is, "Never throw away Pantera parts!"
   Even if you don't need them anymore, someday somebody else might.  And
   who knows, someday even YOU might! :(

   Sorry I can't help you this time--although I have a houseful of other
   people's cast-off parts for just this sort of reason, I don't have the
   caliper springs. Fortunately they aren't expensive.....

   Mike
