<VV> Front brake problem. Now "Procrastination"

[RoboMan91324 at aol.com]

Michael,

I had to laugh when I read your post.  I have done the same thing on a house 
I sold.  Over time, I bought all the stuff I needed for several projects but 
never got to them until I was selling the house.  I could have enjoyed the 
benefit of the upgrade for as long as years but never did.  Hmmm ...... now that I 
think of it, I am doing the same thing with a number of projects on my cars.  
Maybe I should get to it.  I would be embarrassed to post the list.

Doc
