Hey Garbee,
Been a long time, I used to frequent the Big
Electric site a few years ago while I was restoring my M37 and the site was
very instrumental in the whole resto. I'm sure or at least I hope that Eric
just moved on to another project and it has all of his attention now. Like
myself after selling my M37 I stopped frequenting the site and started
looking elsewhere for info on my M211 project. Good to see a familiar name
again. My handle on the site was JeffC
