Can't beat it.

By L-Dogg from Randolph, MA on 6/1/2010
Pros:
price, Quality and Construction
Best Uses:
'50 Ford Business Coupe, Sun Pro Fuel Sender
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

My father needed and adapter for his '50 Ford project car to work with a modern Sun Pro fuel sender. We were going to make our own but I came across this unit. For the cost, time and effort of making one, getting this one just made more sense and we are not disappointed with what we received.

Service & Delivery comments:

Shipping was fast and arrived in perfect condition. Maybe it could have been a couple bucks cheaper for S&H, but its really not a HUGE concern whereas the rest of the transaction was so smooth.
