Thank you kindly, folks. I will try Cecilia, but if Mike wants to copy the
BMC manual for me, right on. Email me and I will send you my information.
I'm not sure what the protocol is for such a thing on this mailing list, but
hopefully I'm going about it correctly.
Best and peace out,
Jon M.

I an having difficulty with HTML's being scrubbed, which means I am not
receiving any pictures and such, so I am missing out. I will send Chris a
screen shot of what I am receiving so he can see it. I may just end up
deleting and starting over on the list. Maybe a virus? I'm not sure and I am
not a computer tech guy. Very frustrating.

on May 8th, so some of you might not have noticed yet that you were
off-list. While I don't understand why this happened, it is apparently due
to some changes made at Yahoo and AOL. However, those removed from the list
were from ISPs all over the map. Some were Yahoo and aol, many more were
not. And some yahoo and aol addresses were not affected.

I also believe Cecelia knows every single part number for every part on ANY
MG. If we all had minds like Cecelia, for lack of need, computers would
never have been invented. She knows Magnettes incredibly well and she
remembers customers just as well as part numbers. NOS Parts is also her
enterprise. Next to Lou, she is one of the most valuable human resources we
have. If you don't know her, just getting to know her is, in itself worth
the cost of an entire NAMGAR GT.
Cheers,Allen

556-6300. She has reproduction manuals. What is even more helpful, in my
opinion, is the parts manual. Cecilia also has these. I have a set of
reproduction ones for the shop and a set of originals (AKD-688 for parts and
AKD-573 for service). There are a number of superb used automobile book
vendors - Vintagemotorbooks.com and books4cars.com are a couple of local
folks to me, though both ship.
Cecilia is a good resource for a surprising number of Magnette items - more
than she actually lists in her catalogs.
