gamsby///wig-lit

exactly the way the old man made his..cotter pin's..clevis...soldered top's on the gromet's/pin's...sliding weight on the inside....not recomended for the virgin builder.

Wow, look at that plug

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Karl..no advantage at all to the old way as far as the hardware..I'll wire a few up using the reg. way of doing it.....should swim much better,,these were a big hit on MV back in "48". and do catch fish.
