Not bad for a dumb music teacher who doesn't even own tools. So, far I have only spent money on tires and elbow grease... But that I found at a discount and got plenty of it.
Odlorah,
We will keep it coming as long as it's needed. But I must tell you, you're going to have to quite all this talk about "dumb teacher".
I'm a former one myself !
Seriously, if you get hung up on the stem/ DRs, let me know and I can dig some out of the parts bin..... shipping only. If you have a neighbor next door though with a PARTS YARD, keep working on him! He might come around.
Yes pics are needed. There were a lot of FS models, let's see what you are dealing with.
