MIAMI AREA - NEED HELP - TODAY
I was on the way to work with my 68' when my rear spring snapped :eek: :eek: . I thought that the transmission or the driveshaft broke, but when I looked under the car I saw that the rear spring broke... I drove the car for 1/4 mile to a Publix parking lot... I spoke with the manager and he told me that I could leave the car there until tonight.. Now I have to get a new rear spring and install them today at the Publix parking lot.(In Miami Beach).. I'm going to leave towards Ecklers to pick up a new spring. I will be back around 4 - 5PM to install the spring. I would really appreciate if someone could assist me with the installation.. It's supposed to be a job that shouldn't take more than 1 hour. I might be able to do it by myself but some help would be greatly appreciated... I will be on the road to get the spring and therefore I won't be able to respond on the forum... If there's someone in the Miami area that would have time around 5 - 7 PM to help me - please call me on my cell phone (305) 469-4926
For all the others - please TTT this post frequently so that people will see the post!
Thanks
Olivier

hmmm... it's 2:10 pm now.... next flight to Miami is in 35 minutes... I don't think I can make it in time... :( oh, almost forgot, I have to pick up my son at school in 45 minutes anyway. I don't think tech articles are gonna help because he is on the road now and next stop will be the parking lot. Good luck Olivier! :) MJ
