Had the opportunity of a lifetime and wanted to share. I was invited to join Dave (OSSW1) and co. in Scottsdale, Az. for Barrett Jackson this year and always wanted to go, soooo, we did. Plane tickets arranged well in advance, we found ourselves at different airports (Dave in LA, Ca. & I in Sac, Ca.) in the worst storms of the year and even worse in Az. They threatened to stop all flights to Az. But we must have got the last ones out. We met in Phoenix and rented a car. we were very fortunate to be invited by a friend of Daves to stay with them while there (even had our own rooms, sweet) and they were great hosts. Dave had to venture back out at midnight to pickup another friend the airport and the day his brother arrived very timely from Tuscon and met us at the auction. Lots of vendors and even more cars. We spent the day until 9:00 that night drooling over some fabulous machinery. Not like a car show though, while waiting outside to be sold the hoods were down and made great pictures, the hoods don't come up till they hit the stage. We must have had a guardian angel cause in the worst storm in 25 yrs. in Az. the rain stopped for us and we spent the whole day running around without getting wet. There are actually more cars to be sold than you can see in one day, so we did our best to get our fill. Daves brother and friends were the best of people and I couldn't have felt more comfortable. We took separate flights out the next day (successfully) and the storm resumed. I came right home and went searching for and old truck to restore. Found one. But with my budget it needs everything. Not too much rust though. ... Thanks for the good times Dave, that was great. For those of you who don't know Dave, he's a former Navy Seal and his younger brother a Police Officer, very special people, I really enjoy their company. Sorry buddy, I hope I'm not embarrassing you.

I just purchased a 1976 Corvette. The headlights won't go down. It seems to have been disconnected for a while. Can anyone give me suggestion on how the repair this problem?
Thanks,
Darrell
