<VV> Success!

[Bill Hubbell]

I'm glad it was:
Wagon: Vroom

As opposed to:
Battery: Kaboom!

For those of you following along at home:

Sunday: Carburetor rebuilds complete.  New fuel lines in place.
Me: "Ok, hit the key"
Trevor: "Ok"
Wagon:

Hmm, well.  Check battery terminals.  The cloud of oxidation from the  
positive terminal might be a problem.

Monday: New terminal in place.
Me: "Ok, hit the key"
Trevor: "Ok"
Wagon:

So, get out the batter charger.  Charge battery.

Today: Charged battery in place.  Turn the key.  It went "click".  So,  
off to the FLAPS, have them test the battery.  Yup, it's dead.  Buy  
new battery.  Get back home, install battery.
Me: "Ok, hit the key"
Wagon: Vroom!
Trevor: "Yay!"
