Autotech Poly bushings for the A1 chassis...

[robcalderwood1 at charter.net (Rob Calderwood)]

David,

Did you get the email from Autotech for free shipping until Oct 31? Use 
coupon code fs101705.

They usually have a 20% off sale near the end of the year. I always get a 
post card for it. I can post the code if I get it this year.

Rob
