    aarrg, I have not been following the thread since I can't make the trip. I will be in No. Carolina that weekend but I'm about 2 to 3 hours west in Asheville on family business and can't just sneak out It is sooo tempting. We are leaving Sunday and I can divert to the Mt. Pilot area but I'm not sure what time we are leaving. I'll be watching , from afar

      Been doing a little upgrading to the Vette, replaced the rear stabilizer bushings ( cushions )and installing some gas shocks. The bushings were toast even the shocks bushings were gone ( I believe it was all original 71). Looking for some curves on the Pilot mtn run.

          Since PT I've replaced the alt, starter, flywheel, A/C line, re-charged A/C, coolant fan switch (twice) and probably the carb next week!

            Just got the motor back together in the Nova last night after replacing the valve that broke. The piston has a few dents but I didn't see any cracks so we are going to run it. I' am gonna try to put some miles on it and if she does ok this week.If so I will be in it for this trip. If not we will have to start making some memories in our 07 Mustang GT. See you all in a week.

                    Hey Buddy, Not sure where we are staying yet. It's looking like we might stay along 81 around Lexinton,VA would you still want to meet up around 8:30 or so Friday morning. Then we go can just head down I-81 to I-77. PM your number and I can call you and let you know where we are.

                      A chair, whatever you're drinking, and a bunch of lies. There is an abc store about a mile away from the hotel so if you guys need anything you can stop by there.

                            Its 11:40 pm I've been in a mad thrash getting the Vette ready, I thought I was going to have to make my shop a EPA super fund clean up site, the shift shaft seal let go and there was a sea of red under the Vette. Some one had been there before me and the case was buggered up but I finally got it in so we'll be flying on a wing and a prayer but we will be flying. Now I'm going to relax and finish my beer and go to bed. Good nite John boy!
