Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Figured it out


Well...once again you guys where right.  I was at O'Reilly's and between you
and me the store in my town only hires "the very best"  The very best at
what I havent figured out yet.  Obviously not cars.  Both O'Reillys and Auto
Zone here in town are a joke.  Last night I went to Auto Zone to get some
more bearings and I had to show the guy behind the count how to run the
computer.  I was looking for bearings for the rear axle for my 68 chevelle.
He went to the shelf and pulled the part out of the box and said "there you
go!"  I just so happend to have the old ones in my pocket (I have learned to
take the old stuff I know is right with me) and compared the two.  Not even
close.  I looked back at the computer screen and he had selected a 1986 Ford
F150.  Call me crazy but I think a blind, one legged horse could have done a
better job of typing in what I wanted.  So...I went to my buddy in Iowa City
that is the manager of O'Reillys there.  He knows what he is talking about
and we had it figured out in no time.  I came home put everything together
and it looks so sweet.
 
 
I know some (ok...all)  of my questions seem dumb but it just seems like
everything I try to do on the car fights me all the way.  When I exhaust all
of my own ideas I know that the knowledge on the list can set me straight.
Thanks for all the help and for making me feel totally stupid!!
