Such a Sad start to the New Year
RIP Marilyn M. Weaver
Mom 1/21/2024

She supported Dads and my Passions for Automobiles. She and Dad were Members of the Local ORM- "Olympic Rally Masters" Car club Est. 1956. She travel thousands of miles with Dad selling piston rings nationally. Her & Dad were plankowners-founders of the combined CLub OVAC, Olympic Vintage Auto Club (Bremerton WA)

We loved traveling with her to all the swap meets and auto club visits.

She and Dad sure forged & fostered my Muscle Car Passions.

Thanks Mom

We love you

James

I'm glad I am not the only one who has owned one of their cars multiple times. I too owned a 1968 Camaro SS/RS 396, not once but twice and almost bought it back for a third time (still kick myself for not buying it back).
However, the third time will never happen for me since the car is not in Australia (yes I stalked it online and found it on an Australian based car site).

Might be a re-post, but
Got a Snap-On Councilor II for $250 bucks working at the Portland Swap Meet in April.
Works Great, W/ All attachments and full binder of instructions, No Exh analysis tho.

Should be a great addition to troubleshoot and tuning.

FALL 2025: Autumn Drive to Keyport & the Naval Underwater Museum.
w/ Drac & His GS400 (*1967) He has owned it since 1973.

Of Note Scott & I meet when I reported to Work (July 1982) at PSNS Shop 51 & we were working on the SALT II Treaty Missile Compartment Deactivations of the retired Polaris/Poseiden Missile Submarines (CUT UPS). This "Static Display" Sail is from the SSN 637>Sturgeon Class (SSN) We worked on Countless versions of these Boats over the years.

As retirees, We felt 'Weird' being so close, & Being a Sunday I wanted - "Time & a Half!"
