Had a customer call me yesterday. Hadn't talked with him in years so we got all caught up.
The reason he called was he wanted to tell me what happened to him recently. He had a certain 409 block that he had kept for the last 25 to 30 years. He drug it with him thru 2 or 3 major moves from state to state. Well, he decided to get it cleaned up so he took it to a local machine shop and told them to hot tank it for him. When he went to pick it up...............not only had they hot tanked it as per his instructions..........but they also decided to deck the block to clean it up for him. WITHOUT PERMISSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The block..................oh................it was stamped QM!!!!!!!!
Can you imagine any jury convicting this guy of manslaughter or homicide??????????? Not me. The guy at the machine shop said they do that for just about everybody!!!
A REAL Z-11 block no longer exists. And my friend didn't write down the VIN or assembly number before he took it in. There isn't enought blood pressure medicine in ALL of the Walgreen's Pharmacys to have controlled me if I would have this happen to me. I'd probably be in Leavenworth penitentiary!!! Me and all the rest of the Gitmo prisoners!! A really sad story.........................
