Bryan, if you have time this weekend to come up we can move my 77 cars around in my garage and get one of them ready for taking it up to Scranton. I could use your help with that on Saturday or Sunday, whichever day may work well for you.
Thank you sir.
David

Bob K. is going to assist me with getting the 72 Corvette's swapped out on Monday. Arrangements have been made and a plan is born. That will get the 72 racer back home and allow me to dig in and get busy with that car soon.

Thank you Bob, and see you Monday.

Best regards,

David H.

David,

Unfortunately some things have come up and I will not be available this weekend. Monday would have been perfect but it seems as if you have that covered. I am sorry and I hope that this doesn't leave you in a bad way.

The 77 body has been removed from the garage and place on a transportation trailer for delivery to its new owner.

The garage has been prepared for the return of the 72 road race replica where it will be my top priority through completion.

Movement of the 77 and the 72 could only be accomplished due to the help of good Forum member friends so thank you to all that have helped me, I appreciate it.

Best regards,

David Howard

Know what you mean David with the forum members always ready to help. Glad you were able to get things done with their help. Heal up and get ready to get back to it! I'm having a blast working on my 71 project.

David, let’s hope the weather cooperates. My 72 is somewhat weather proof but the racer is not. See you tomorrow. I’ll give you the briefing on the progress tomorrow.

David, would happen to have a set of rims or know some one. I can blast and clean up if needed. I have been searching the forum and Ebay. Hope your healing well.

David,

Looks like the rain should stop late morning or early afternoon. I’ll be at your door step at 9:30. Looking forward to a fun day. ��

The exchange is done. My 72 is back home and Davids Racer right now is on its way back to his house. We had a nice lunch after swapping cars. Always good to catch up.
