Well...the time is almost here to make one of our trips..this one to Cooperstown NY for a family wedding. Its bad when you'd rather stay home and work...than go see people from your past. I have a sister here and a brother near Troy..My sister is coll and is taking vacation while we're there..I doubt I'll even see my brother. Wedding..my wife's sisters daughter..shes a pediatric Dr. in Springfield Mass...nice kid but will know virtually no one there. Going to visit an old pal in NH..was my shop chief when I was at Griffiss AFB NY back in 71-72. I'm old...hes ancient..just called me about 30 minutes ago to see if trip was still on. Plus I'm on the hunt for an A roadster, may have one located near Cooperstown.

Most of us here in NY think about looking for old cars in places like Arizona or New Mexico. Most of our cars have the creepin rot in all the seams, if not outright frame cancer...
You'll be lucky to find an "A" around here that dosen't need the inner side of both frame rails replaced (right where the wood of the floorboards sits)
