Thanks Ken,
I sure hope you get it fixed soon. I have a true story that happened to me. 1968 I was driving home from work in my 57 Chevy 2dr. ht. All of a sudden the loudest backfire and the engine died. It was on a busy expressway coming out of Chicago no less.
I thought I blew it up had it towed to a friends garage, I was single but had married friends that had garages. Another friend had a 56 Chevy 2dr. wagon not a nomad but a 2dr. I bought the wagon for the engine, I think at that time maybe $100 I pulled the engine myself and took the engine out of the 57 my self. I worked all night long on the switch. Before I actually pulled the engine from the 57 I noticed a wire was off the coil. I had everything disconnected and ready to come out. I was so upset I said to myself I’m not stopping I’m switching anyway.
I have always heard start at the basic’s but it seems like I always think the worst first.
I see someone is having trouble with the knee good luck to her the knee can be very painful.
I had a motorcycle accident 1969 and it’s been bad ever since, 5 surgery’s now it needs to be replaced but I just hate to go through another surgery, I need 4 but at my age I’m not too eager to go.

Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
How did you get hooked on cars?
