You expressed interest, so let’s do it! It’s gonna be a hot one tomorrow, so we’re leaving early. Plan on around a 2h ride, with a stop midway at commons.cafe for coffee. Moderate pace, light hills, scenic routes. DM if you’re interested!

The rule usually is “you get what you pay for”, but in this case we don’t even think that applies. A customer recently brought us this “rebuilt” M42 to install into their car, but what do you guys think?
