FWIW, Internet searches don't necessarily yield correct information.  A
lot of it depends on the subject you're searching, the way you spell,
and even the order of the words in the search argument.  A number of
years ago I searched for several hours trying to find some details about
Gutenberg's invention of movable type.  I got thousands of results, but
most of the sites were class projects posted on the Internet by sixth
graders -- literally.  That's not exactly reliable information.  

There also is the problem that not all characters are recognized in a
search argument.  While searching for a source for throttle casing nuts
a couple of weeks ago, the argument for a "#14-18 tap" got converted
into "1/4-18 tap".  That's not exactly the same thing.

Farmer  sorry to get after you but a few of the guys who are after me
are 
getting on my  nerves as of late.

I bought a radiator and shell for a 29/30 model a Ford  a few weeks ago
at an 
auction for $4, sold it on E-bay for $50
I remember  when you could buy the whole car for $50. 

Since you didn't know that the  Sterling was close to the Acura Legend
then I 
can assume that you forgot to look  this one up on Google.  Giggle.
