    Dear V-8 Buick fans, . . . .

    There is a modest entry in the Hemmings blog about Thomas A. DeMauro's weekend work on his 1967 Buick Gran Sport:

    As part of the weekend's repairs, Thomas decided to install a Stewart Warner green line Motor Minder vacuum gauge. He chose this model as listed Stewart Warner website:

    Summit's listing has even a picture of the gauge that is oddly missing from the manufacturer's website:

    The blog article is mostly about the author's satisfaction of getting some much needed maintenance accomplished before the cold of Winter set it, but it is still a pleasant bit of reading for any car lover.

    Cheers, Edouard :)

    Thomas is a good guy. He and I have exchanged messages from time to time on our 67's.
