Besides winning a bunch of new friends I won a $500.00 gift certificate from Coker Tire on their only day in Indy - thanks for calling me Rett (even though they said they'd mail it) I was headed for Miller Time.Last edited by 70chevyC-10; June 15, 2011, 08:35 AM.Phil / OmahaComment

I 'won' a new friend.
When we were broken down in Natchedotches, LA, I met a young man named John. His dad worked at the shop. He latched onto me like he needed some 'grandpa' time, and we really had a great hour or two together. He is one of the most polite, inquisitive, and genuine young men I have ever met. Had a 'Larry the Cable Guy' fish hook on his hat.....asked lots of questions about Earl, and was as precocious as they come. I was really impressed with him.
In my rush to get back on the road, I failed to offer him a ride in Earl, so I sent him a few tokens from the PT....a t-shirt, an autographed hat from Vic Edelbrock, pictures of Camaros (he likes those), and some other stuff from the goody bag and vendors.....
Nice kid. Did my heart good to meet him. He'll be one of us one day.......

I met some great folks in Warren Michigan - and tried to help a fellow BS'r shop for a 3/8" NPT pipe plug at the third or fourth super walmart we found after 10pm on Friday night.
I'm now considering safety wiring all plugs - just in case.
Thanks for the ride in the GTO Matt!There's always something new to learn.Comment

After the fact I thought we could have called Roto-Rooter for a house call - they probably had one.Originally posted by milner351 View PostI met some great folks in Warren Michigan - and tried to help a fellow BS'r shop for a 3/8" NPT pipe plug at the third or fourth super walmart we found after 10pm on Friday night.
