Thanks to all who responded to my bathroom faucet inquiry. After taking mine
out of the wet bath (shower divertor style), I cleaned out all the
plumbers putty which filled the whole thing. Where the rubber cone gaskets used
to be was putty. The shower line consisted of a 1/8 NPT copper pipe with a 3/8
flange adaptor on the end. This flange adaptor was cross threaded. Replaced
the 1/8 NPT and flange adaptor. Now I
just have to get new cone washers that slip over the hot and cold feed lines. I
guess I could use the "modern" ball pipe and use compression fittings to mate
with the supply lines.

ps -thanks emery for offering to fix my faucet, but I figured it out. I've only
had my GMC for about 8 weeks now and have jumped in with both feet. Could not
have been so productive without this list. Thanks everybody!
