Hey Steve thanks for the shout out. Happy to see that drill press is getting used!

Thank you!

I really enjoy your vids and that why I'm subbed, but I had no idea what an AMC Hornet was so this was double the fun! I'm a Datsun fanboi, through and through and my '77 620 is in the garage, taking up space and getting an overhaul!

[@BuildSeason]

Welcome aboard! I like some of the AMCs because they are odd little cars but I agree I’m a huge Datsun fan. I want a 521/620 so bad. It would be the ultimate project vehicle that is also practical!

Why didn't you just use a spring compressor from Harbor Freight?

[@BuildSeason]

I actually own a set of those HF compressors but I don't like to use them. I've seen to many videos of them slipping off.
