I wanted to get my Dad a copy of Jack Sims book for Fathers day. I remember YEARS ago I bought my copy off this website or from Jack himself. Where can I buy it?? I found it at Amazon for like 140 bucks! I don't remember paying that much the last time... I mean I know its been a few years but that seems high!

The latest edition was last printed 5yrs ago & Suggest price was $34.99, so finding a mint copy might be a costly problem. Amazon is speculating they can sell a copy for that. Amazon is asking for $140 for a 2nd edition, Gotta wonder what I could ask for a Signed Mint Copy of his 1st Edition?

I spoke with Pergl at Carlisle and they were sold out. I tried three emails to Jack and got no response.

There was another thread that mentioned it was an e-book. Go to OldGas.com and click on books and it will take your right there...

Jim's Garage in New Westminister, B.C. still has Jack's pump book listed on his website for $29.95 Canadian. Worth a try. Cheers, Don.
