NO BILL......THEY NOW HAVE A New THICK DESIGN GASKET AVAILABLE from &quot;Remflex&quot;... they are $38 per set, well worth the money.

Shoot...... if I had known you were painting some Code 57 Glade Green today I would have asked for a colour swatch.... I need a sample for the powder coater so we can select the wheel colour.....

Nice work, what a nice car!!!
