Crypty note for fun

My buddy Charlie came over last night with his girlfriend
after seeing Crypty at his cousins shop where we rented a
lift. After seeing Crypty was finally operational and
having met David personally, Charlie wanted his ride after
a year of looking at dead Crypty in the garage.

So I loaded up a fire extinguisher, fired up Crypty, warmed
the engine, pulled down for running lights.....NOTHING,
not a single exterior running light lit. BLARGH~

Headlights, brakes, turns, flashers all worked. Anyway, it
was still dusk so we took a spin down the expressway at
3,000 rpms in 4th. No explosions or fires to report.

Went to sleep pondering every single new wire I installed.
Woke up thinking it had to be the 4 way red wire connector
behind the dash had popped a wire. It was.... three second
fix.

Crypty jinxed the electric garage door opener- so no drive
tonight. Repair crew arrives tomorrow.

Crypty is one lazy car for sure.

Dale,
Without realising it you are becoming a real expert. That car is teaching you a lot!

Just remember, it's probably the simple stuff. Dont panic.

Now that's an improvement if ever I heard one!
 
Dale T.

Electrical Wizard and Mystery Man of Mechanics.

Exiled to a summer paradise year round, our intrepid (but bored) hero architect/engineer is presented with a seemingly innocuous gift, which quickly morphs into his new arch enemy Crypty. Not a quitter, our main man decides to embark on a new career with a wrench in his hand. Armed with a mere rudimentary sense of engine mechanicals and electrical systems, he conquers demons that even seasoned veterans fear to trend upon.

Stay with us folks, for the thrilling, but never ending tale of "Dale vs. Crypty". Coming to a theater near you soon.

* This is a CC (Crypt Car) Production
 
It must have been Dale who killed off the super hero that was mentioned in the PUB
 
Dale wanted a better time slot for his adventure show.
 
For the adventurous, guest starring roles available.Come to the islands and fix seemingly unconquerable problems on crypty. Accepting applications now. Dave
 
It must be that the climate suits those pesky Lucas gremlins down there. Dale's got one of the nastiest ones ever possesing that car. It'll be banished yet! between the backup here, and the fact that Dale's becoming a master Gremlin hunter!
