Default Free Chrsitmas Gift

OK, in the spirit of the season, I have free Christmas gifts for anyone that has a real use for them.

I have about 40 extra copies of

"The Complete Chevrolet V-8 Engine Code Pocket Guide 1955-1991 The Lime Book.

One copy per address, absolutely free to a good home.

This book is out of print, and I haven't decided if I am going to make another printing or not.

So as not to clog up the forum, please send me an email to emccomas57@gmail.com. Please include your ship to address.

I will cover all costs. My way of saying thank you to all that provide so much to this forum.

No need to acknowledge this message, or to send a PM.

I am checking my email regularly. I will post a notice when the 40 copies are spoken for.

Email is emccomas57@gmail.com

If you did not get either a PM or an email from me telling you that you were in line, then you didn't make it.

Sorry. Merry Christmas anyway.

I am seriously considering a new printing. I have added lots of engine codes to my database.

Stay tuned...

Merry Christmas to all.

I would have to add to this - Please be patient. I shipped a box from my home north of Philly to Myrtle Beach SC. Suppose to be delivered yesterday. when I tracked it to see if it was delivered, I discovered it was in California!!! Really - is that a short cut - Pa to California to South Carolina.

Patience folks - delivery guys are getting slammed!!

Merry Christmas to all!!
