Default Met another C4 guy today.

I was driving all over Jackson, MI trying to locate a parts store that sells AC oil filters. I remember that a few years ago, even Kmart and Walmart sold AC stuff, but now it all Fram. So, I finally (like the 5th stop) pull into Advance Auto parts on my last wit trying to find a stupid $5 PF51. I get in there and they have every other PF except 51. I asked one of the guys behind the desk where I could find PF51 and he told me the part # was old. It is now PF52. Huh. I think that I knew this at one time, but I have a short attention span.

Anyway, I told the guy that it was going in my 93 and he told me that he had the 94 sitting in the parking lot. It was a beautiful black rose with some stunning 5-spoke chrome rims. We talked for a bit and it turn out he belongs to a Corvette club that I have been thinking of checking out.

Here I was on my last nerve and I meet another Vette guy, and suddenly life is great!

Just had to share. Lyle, if you read this,

During the summer if you see another 40th heading towards the Irish Hills you can meet another. Might be driving thru your way a lot because of the construction.

Let me know when you're on the way. We can get a nice greasey cheesburger at the local tap!
