My first day of Power Tour

Unloaded the car and drove to a store. On the way back is starts making quite a racket. Mike at concours had not left yet so he ended up hauling the car to a Chevy Dealer in Garland Texas last night. They were very Cool and stored the car inside overnight. Today they loaned us a stall and tools..

We lost a roller lifter and let me tell you that lifter is pretty buried.

Curt Urban from Wheel to Wheel Powertrain in Warren Mi actually flew out this morning with parts and we are back on the road.

Sounds like you owe some guys a couple of brews, Clill!

Glad to hear ya got that bad boy up and running again. Looking at those pictures drives home the fact just how complicated & hi-tech that thing is...

Charlie,

I'm considering coming down to the Davenport Iowa leg when you arrive. Not sure if I should just drive alone, or bring the "Little Hoss" car, just to have it there. Your thoughts please, and from others.

Take the Little Hoss with you. There will be many that would love to see it.

Charlie, LVCamaro,

I am not sure of the route up from St. Louis, but if you are taking Hwy 61, which I think you are, to Davenport, you will come through Burlington, just in from the MO border. This is the town Herb Fox street raced "Little Hoss".

If this is the case, you will be just 18 miles from LaHarpe. Maybe if Helen is not going to Davenport, you can just drop in for some coffee and cookies. If you do, just stop by the F&S and Jerry will give you directions to her house, just a few blocks away. The old Gibb dealership is on the 9/94 junction. I'll try and copy a detail map from the area for those who are interested, in at least visiting the old dealership building.
