VCCA Home Forums TECHNICAL - 1945 AND NEWER 1946-1948 Durex Fuel Filter Gasket

Look Joe, lets lay our cards on the table, if you want me to leave the group just say so. I'm getting tired of being flamed by you!
Denny Graham
Sandwich, Ill

I believe this thread should now turn in a more happier direction!

I think someone (Mother Trucker) Needs to take a pill!

I think we need to filter the tension here,is somebodies team losing????

Don't pay any attention to M.T....I found that out a long time ago.

Well Chevy NutJob....
Ya got yer guys that sit in front of their computers & make 12,000,000 posts "about" working on old Chevies & ya got yer guys that don't post much but "actually" go out & do it in real life......
I am gonna guess that ChevNut is one of the guys that does alot of typin' but not much wrenchin'.


Denny... you are a good source for info. & I really enjoyed your links to the heater control valve rebuild.

Sometimes you give off mixed messages though when you claim to be a preservationist yet constantly post topics about crappy Chinese repop parts you can't get to fit.

I remember you requesting informaion on original sway bars for AD trucks & after everyone dug out all the info. on the original parts & scanned & posted it here.... you bought the cheapo aftermarket part anyway.

I remember you complaining about not getting a Chinese repop gas tank to fit your AD truck.

Then we got the cheapo Chinese bumper guards that don't fit your bumper.

Then I see a post here about you looking for reproduction fuel filters when there are alot of NOS units still out there.

I was under the impression that the VCCA was a group of restorers that always try to use original GM parts on our restorations..... if the VCCA mission now includes hangin' ill fitting cheapo repop parts from China all over our restorations.... Please let me know.

I am afraid you are wrong. I was in the Chevrolet business before you were born.

We registered only 3 days apart in 2002 yet ChevyNutJob has 11,572 more posts than me in that 6 year span.

I have skinned knuckles from actually goin' out & working on old Chevies & NutJob has a sore butt & carpal tunnel from sitting in front of his computer typing about it.

So what is the conclusion of this topic?
Is Denny gonna hunt down a NOS GM AC unit ? or is he gonna send $$$ to Taiwan for his fuel filter ?

Let's just end this "He is I, Am thing" right here.

OK Whacky Macky with {10,000} posts.
We are moving on to the next topic

Hey MT! You got something you wanna sell?
as for me I am so broke that i can't hardly pay attention. Where have you been for my last 2 or 3 thousand posts? We been missing your cheerful old Advanced Design Truck self! I really didn't know that anyone really get's into those add on Durex settlement bowl & fuel filter combos. I have several of the originals that didn't have filters in them, and a 5 gallon bucket of assorted others, AC, Modline or is it Moline ones in good used condition that I picked up for nothing at salvage yards. I usually take them to Swap meets and trade them for old junk Rochester Model B & BC carbs and Stromberg 2 barrels. Some of us old codgers live where there are 4 seasons and rather than burn a lot of firewood or cow chips we spend some daylight hours and nights relapseing in front of Hulett Puckeard. Try it you may learn something useful.

Hey Mother****** Do you realize what a ridiculously STUPID comment this was? I know for a fact Chev Nut can still wrench with the best of them, and still has time to sit at his computer and make 12,000 posts HELPING any, and all with even the most tiny detail of information. He is one of the most knowledeable men in this entire club, and very gracious with his wisdom. Not bad for a man over 70 with physical limitations.

You need to learn some RESPECT!

Thats a good one Mack

Hello MT, just wanted to let you know how we get to post 10K replys when it is too bad to bust knuckles and nuts....(It is snowing and raining and sleeting, all at the same time here in God's country!)
"A hard working old VCCA codger", eating pie! and typing a reply at the same time. SEMPER FI!!!


Sticks and stones can break your bones and words can never hurt you, but AK 47s and RPGs can mess up your whole dang day....
. SEMPER FI!!!

Nice to hear from ya Mack.... You look like you are eatin' a burrito in that picture

Freezing rain,snow & sleet don't sound like Gods country to me Mack....

It was 70 today with the sun shinin' bright here in the remote rust free desert of Arizona & we were too busy haulin' in our lastest pile of original GM truck parts to sit in front of the computer.

Some guys get out there & do it & some guys talk about doin' it.

Keep the old iron goin' brother

Joe, your junk looks bigger than my junk.

I am gonna take that as a compliment
