I wouldn't let him get too comfortable, like an old shoe. He might have a separation anxiety attack.

Sure would be nice to have him attend, maybe another call would help, without being pushy......My Beautiful, Chevelle Loving Wife says patience is not my strong suit.

I found a vintage set of AC R44TS triple green striped insulator, spark plugs on ebay. I got them for $14 from someone selling estate stuff from an old garage. I installed them today, replacing the recent AC R44TS set that was put in there a couple years ago. The car runs noticeably smoother. (Probably because one or two of the plug wires were not fully seated on the plugs to begin with).

The plugs I pulled out all had nice tan insulators and appeared to be burning nicely. The one thing I noticed was that the vintage green stripe plugs have a 3/8&quot; shorter insulator than the modern versions. Anyone have any idea why they made the modern ones longer?

Rick Fedexed me his typewritten 16 page biography of the car today so I would have it for the show next week. He even signed, notarized and had it bound into a booklet for me.

Thank goodness he didn't end up with those stripes.
