[DeTomaso] Fuel Tank Repair/Replace Follow-up Thanks

[Mike Drew]

Bob,

An excellent point. That’s why it’s always good to do this job at somebody else’s house. That provides added inspiration to concentrate on the job at hand, and not allow yourself to become distracted. Because you and everybody else know that at the end of the day, it’s time for you to GTFO so the car better be ready to go! :)

Mike
