    Yep, ol Dave does good work. He rebuilt the AFB on my R-2 GT Hawk last year and it starts and runs better than it ever did in the 20 yeras I've owned the car. Russ Farris

        I concur about Dave, I was at his house this a.m. to drop off some parts to be plated. He has been invaluable in advice and engineering on my 51 starlight project. He built my r4 and tranny and supplied all the performance parts as well as any other part I needed. He is just a great guy,

          Just want to put in my vote for Dave also. He rebuilt my R2 carb and distributor. Both are excellent and well worth the money spent, which is very reasonable for the product that you get.

            When I grow up I want to be able to pack away steak like Dave.........one has to see dave rip into a two pound slab of beef at either damons or alexanders......it will bring tears to your eyes....his wife janet claims his doctors report his lipids are all normal............amazing!

            Go dave go!

              I fully agree all good things said about Dave T."though I'm not sure about the steak thing"have'nt seen him consume any! honestly though I bought Avanti engine parts and all my needs for my recent Champ 289 re-build.and all my questions get answered.

                I sent my Hydrovac to Dave and had him add the Studebaker kit that reduces pedal effort on my disc brake GT Hawk (an extra 100.00.) It works just great, I've never had better brakes in the 22 years I've owned it. We have many
                outstanding vendors, and Tbow is right at the top of the list! Russ Farris

                  I'm sure he would be thrilled to hear somebody make comments about his eating habits[}] Note to self: Don't eat any meals with Laemmle[xx(]

                  Dave never ceases to amaze me with the array of products he offers- and all top-quality, eye candy grade. Thanks TiBow!

                            JP recommended Dave in an email and I've been a happy camper with his work and advice, too! Got to meet him in Cedar Rapids.
