Received a Tony order late today and then it was time to go. Never have driven or put into gear before. The 65 cruised like a champ.

Heh, I took the back of off the drivers seat and put a board wedged in. Got three extra inchs or so. I can now drive a bit and test and such while my durn leg is healing. It needs to be preaty straight out.

Good post, thanks for sharing. It's always good to see one go back on the road!

The photos also do a GREAT job of reinforcing the need for strength in the sills and tunnel/bulkhead areas. Without that, you'd "hit bottom".

I am wondering how to take Ray's reply, is he suggesting I have a weight problem. Or is he discussing the overall engineering of our little cars?

 

[mccalebr]

Yes... (the latter)
