Sorry but RUCRUZIN isn't going to make it to this years meeting - I have been trying to get comfortable with the engine rebuild and conversion to a manual transmission that I did over winter but I am just too leary to go that far.  Looked into towing it, that made no sense - trailering too costly.  When I was a kid I had no problem jumping into an old VW and going 1000 miles in 15 hours.  Now I seem to fret over every noise I hear.  Anyway - all of you - have the greatest time and please update those of us who will be there in spirit.  I cancelled my room today

Vette(s): 1980 L-48 still in the middle of a frame-off.

I ended up at Enterprise rental cars for 27 a day and I"m still coming.

Don"t give up yet.





Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.
