Do you think the snow will disappear in time for Ancaster - April 20?

Hi Don,

I'm happy to hear your car is back on the road. Well done. Of course, we up
in the north east are up to our eye balls in snow and likely won't be
putting any rubber on the road any time soon. But we're all really happy for
you, honest.

Regards,

It works!! Put the gearbox in Sunday, reinstalled the exhaust,
installed the rebuilt Weber, primed that sucker and off I went.
Shifts like a hot knife thru butter. Real nice now that it's all
cleaned up and all the linkage lubricated, etc. OD works fine also.

While the gearbox was out I replaced the fuel line (had to be 32
years old). It was brittle! Lucky I'm alive.

As Mike said, the weather out here in California is nice right now
(of course a lot nicer 200 miles south where he is). So I'm ready to
ride............oh what a feelin' !!
