DeTomaso Mailing List: October 99, Message #33

Landis:
If your up in the Norcal area near the end of October, make a beeline to
Roger Sharpe's house for the famous PCNC BBQ and tech session. The main
subject will be springs and suspension but the Drewster and his infinite
knowledge of steering racks and such should be on hand to help you. If not,
Roger and the rest of the company should be able to help you out too. Cal.
#2428r (seen the maestro's at their work!).
