I was under the impression the '67 went off on ebay? Seemed you were real close at the end there. Sometimes the market is unexplainable.

I saw something on the NCRS Tech Board today that was very disturbing; not for me but others in the hobby. GM has stopped producing some critical parts (e.g. electronics from ECM to brake sensors, etc.) for C4s and even some C5s. They are very heavily dependent on corrosion-sensitive parts. And they are no plans for repro people to step in. If you own a C4 or C5 watch out! You think a C4 or C5 is a bargain???? Thing again, and again. But drop by NAPA and still get your points and condensor. About $25.00 for a C2 or an early C3.

Well OK. I have many ancient threads on this Forum, both C3 and C2. I don't remember the Stant T-stat. But if I bought one it worked well. As does the one from CTC.
This is a pic of my 1974 and (former) 1979 from two weeks ago. Would you believe it was painted in 2000 with DuPont Chroma Premier. It still looks great! What is on my 1974 I have no idea but it is ...OK...
I picked up some bad 89 gas from ESSO late last week. They must have water in their tanks this time of year. Messes up my idle. but the car still runs. I'm going to burn it off tomorrow at highway speed with some isopropyl alcohol and then get some PetroCan (Sunoco) 94. This happened back in June as well. Bloody annoying.

I follow your travels with more than a little envy, I've put more miles on this year than the last 8 combined but few (if any) have been to such interesting or nice locals as where you've been.
Only running the p-can 94 myself, car really doesn't seem to like anything else. (wish I left the compression back at 8.5 grumble grumble)
Carb still needs some work, seriously thinking of sending it to Lars next winter for a total exorcism.
Otherwise everything seems to be working well (which makes last winters work seem worth it)
All the best
