More Kudos for Bert's Model A Center and..
...especially for Steve Becker! I discovered late last week that the #1 connecting rod in a friend's engine from H*ll I have been trying to straighten out had unusable Babbitt and possibly a bent rod issue. Steve was able to supply a quality re-Babbitted rod at a very reasonable price, without the need to return an exchange rod. Bert's price, very fair shipping charges and no need to mail them an exchange rod probably saved $20+ dollars over the "big" guys' prices. And the quality of the Babbitt pour looks great.
When I could no longer ignore the issues with this P.O.S. rod in this P.O.S. engine, I called Steve on Friday afternoon and he mailed the rod right out. Even though yesterday was a national holiday with no mail service, the rod arrived already this morning from Colorado to Iowa. Wow! I am VERY pleased with Bert's and Steve. 'Gotta order more parts from them from now on. Try 'em for your next Model A parts order!
