Sounds great Jim, and I appreciate the offer... I may take you up. biggest problem is time is not on my side with this surgery. I had it Friday and all went well except for an allergic reaction to the pain medication. It closed up my throat and swelled my toung so bad I was having trouble swallowing... of course I self diagnosed and figured it would go away since i stopped taking it... not... it got worse, and Elaine took me to the ER where the doctor chewed my ass out also... said It was only gonna get worse, the breathing would have been next.... they loaded me a bunch of benadryl and other stuff ASAP and in about an hour it had reversed... scared the crap out of me which was a good thing. Like Elaine and the Dr said. If your not sure... don't wait... go to the ER. Funny thing is I wouldn't hesitate to bring my wife or kid's to the ER but not myself... dumb. Anyway... hope to see some posts/pics on your new beauty...

Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!

If worse comes to worse, drive anything you can to get there.

But if someone is close by with an automatic perhaps you can trade rides on the way to PF????    Maybe not, but it's a thought.

I'll do my best.. I'll know more on Thurs after the Dr looks... I'm hoping for a walking cast in 4-6 weeks, and he said probably 12 weeks in some kind of cast.... I can't and ain't complaining... when i look at the problems other C3VR's have.. I consider myself very fortunate ... at least I will be up and around shortly and the summer is still ahead... great group of people here  ...
