i do remember that discussion and it was like banging my head against a brick wall getting it thru to those expert numbnuts that they were wrong....

Not claiming to be an expert, so I guess I'm in the numbnut category?

Me numbnut as well.. lol But when we raise questions and are set straight by someone like OZBox we all learn....

I think you might find that lurkers who don't ask questions regularly read what is said to expand their knowledge as well.

On ya for asking them. Good on OZBox for setting us straight..lol

thanks for the compliments mauser but i dont consider myself to be an expert..i do early holdens for a living,not a hobby, and the hq series is the one im more passionate about..im quite happy to be corrected but it needs to be from a parts catalogue to prove it.
i love learning new stuff and i usually do learn something new everyweek regardless how inane it may be...:Chin:

haha well I'm a IT network engineer... we all have our niche. Somebody else always knows something you don't whoever they are. I think every job has good and bad in it.

Cheers guys. Dad came home with 3 new old stock center caps, all with the tail. I have 3 new old stock ones sitting in the back of my sandman, ones i bought a few months ago but from memory I think they may not have any tail. I'll have to pull them out tomorrow and check. It's a good thing the guy didn't know what he was selling... :errf:

I think you should send the three short tail ones to me, to go with the one short tail I have left after swapping the other one for a long tail....:P
