Anyone who knows me already knows that was tongue in cheek, sorry if it appeared otherwise. Anyone unhappy can return it for a full refund, nobody has asked for that to my knowledge. I was pointing out that there are reasons that things are where they are, didn't mean to kick up anybodies hackles. There are a lot of things different these days it seems. If there are any issues please take them up with PRD, I'm going back to what I do. ~John -----Original Message----- From: amc-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:amc-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dave Cotner Sent: Wednesday, June 27, 2007 7:01 PM To: AMC/Rambler owners, drivers and fans. Subject: Re: [Amc-list] PRD Radiators This is why I dont order any of the parts that people here on the list offer because when you recieve the item you order and things are not right and you question about it you get a smart a_s answer from them. Everybody should understand that people are out to make money these days, because if they did things right it would cost you out your behind. And having a petcock in a radiator has been around for years and is not just a convience as this email says.
