Made in England. As Mr. May rattled off the history of the car and his experiences with their engines, it occurred to me that, based upon my recent experience with the tractor, maybe it would be smarter to let him rebuild the engine. The decision was made academic when Mr. May told me what he would charge to rebuild it. This is way too cheap. Smiling, Mr. May said that he thought the price was fair.
Mechanics charge too much today.
At my price, I can work on this engine at my pace and have fun. Besides, Kermit Glass said to be nice to you. Something about your medication not being quite right. Well, in no time at all, Mr. May had rebuilt the engine and the drive shafts, wheel bearings, and just about every other mechanical piece of equipment I could take out of the car. The way I figured it, I couldn't buy the parts as cheaply as what I was paying Mr. May to buy and install them for me.
