Default First Roadtrip

Took the old girl out for her first real roadtrip (over 200 miles)since we bought it and put in the Duraspark. Good trip, no problems, the wife even commented on how smooth the ride was. For her to be complimentary on any of my toys is a real newsmaker! The only downside is the discovery that we used about 1 & 1/2 quarts of oil and seem to have some fuel weep at the carb. Now it's on to the old compression check and oil leak search. I just have to keep in mind that the car is 42 years old andhave a couple of years until my son takes over. All in all, I'm real happy I bought the car.[/align][/align]CrashBob[/align]
