Maybe he's done you a favour???

True Story.... Friend of mine had till recently a '65 Bonneville Convertible with 8 lugs. They were shot to bits so at HUGE expense he airmailed the whole set to our mate, the late Roger Rabbit, and eventually got them back. I might also add that he was impressed with the job RR had done on my front drums......(They shortly afterwards went oval:mad: )

Before he had the car finished from a re-build, he received a telephone number offer for the car. Common sense prevailed and he sold the car. New owner promply went bad financially and it was on-sold.

Now finished, the present owner apparently suffered a massive delamination on one front drum and at high speed. The whole internal lining tore out. :eek: Fortunately the car was brought to a safe stop but that car is going nowhere till he gets new drums. I'm also told that another drum is showing signs of delaminating

We shouldn't speak ill of the dead but sometimes there are EXCEPTIONS:rolleyes:

For my own part, I'm using the standard drums off my '65 Bonneville till my new drums from Arrowhead eventually get here.......
:ausflag:
