The celebration for Pete’s birthday was well
attended with many friends from the VMG, his
bridge card group and family, of course. A
great party!
Thanks to Jerry and to John for the
safety inspection on Jerry’s lift. We saw
several TDs on the lift plus my MGA. John
spotted I was missing a bolt in the front
u-joint and TWO bolts (of 3) holding the
exhaust to the manifold. I found all the
other u-joint bolts loose. I think I did not
tighten them when I installed the new
drivetrain 3 years ago. It was even a new
driveshaft custom built for the application.
We decided to move house while I was
in the middle of the project. I was
experiencing some odd swaying on the freeway
so perhaps that was the driveshaft
|
going its own merry way. I have 3000 miles
or more on it since the work was done.
We are working out the details for a
caravan to the GOF in Folsom (Oct. 14-18).
You can still join us!
Thanks once again to all the good folks who
keep the club rolling along.
Safety Fast!
