Wow, well I almost canb't believeI never heard of it, but there
it is.

About a year ago I started to document AMC/Rambler brakes, and
ran out of data. I've been collecting TSMs, and just bought
a few more on ePay, 1967 being one of them. I'll eventually
coumplete the damn spreadsheet! And I'm sure I'll stumble on that
bore business.
