First thing I noticed in the Belvedere was the steering, which felt as though you were herding it down the road with it's quarter turn of play...not a big deal for me, just wondering how the early-20's daughter would do. The brakes were acceptable, and the rear springs felt like they were just perfect for a big ole road pillow..no stiffness of any kind left in them! Dash lights were abysmal, not that any guages appeared to work anyway...
"If you see the temp guage move, it's getting hot!" Boone seemed to be reading my mind. We pulled up and spotted Darren laying under the Charger.
"I can't get this tank to fit in the car..filler neck won't line up, I've lost my linkage to the column shift, I don't know how in the heck I'm going to finish this car with working all week..."
"Are you gonna get my parts from that guy?" Boone changed the subject.
"Yeah" , Darren affirmed, "I'll bust his chops in the morning!"
We went in for showers, a bite to eat and bed. I told Boone before lying down, "You and Dale need to chose which of those cars is going, and concentrate on just one...it may be too late already".
"I know.., I KNOW!"
Another day in the books.
