<VV> In Sturbridge

[Christopher Gallagher]

My best wishes for a fun convention.  I'm envious because I can't be there as I had planned, since I'm still in post-op care after eye surgery :(  I'll be able to attend virtually if Andrew (aka Corvairwild and Uglytruck) keeps up his good work in videoing all the events.  Looking forward now to CORSA 2013 in Michigan.

> Best wishes for a safe trip Tim.  I'm  hoping to be there Thursday for the day, G-d willing. Getting ready, replaced a bum motor mount, changed the fluid in the diff (got more on me than in the gearbox, ecch, but finally got enough in there to be level with the plug), got some of the wiring fixed, even installed a shoulder belt.  
> I'm a bit nervous because my first "close encounter" with the undercarriage of my Monza shows virtually all the rubber bushings in the suspension to be needing replacement.  Whoever owned this car didn't spend too much time keeping it up, even though the engine runs strong and the body is solid.   But the car drives nice and smoothly and handles well.  I'll be taking it easy and not pushing her, probably take 4 hours from NYC.
