Not really a competition that one needs to win?

Mine caught fire while I was driving off a ferry in Dublin which =
wasn=E2=80=99t good. But I=E2=80=99ve bragged on about that =

A belated Happy Christmas to you all and particularly to those who were =
so generous with their time and patience. Clutch still working but not =
much chance to drive the car in currently vile =
weather=E2=80=A6=E2=80=A6.

Happy New Year too!

My wife and I were out for a walk in the neighborhood on a cool =
afternoon today and the conversation turned to what had happened in our =
lives on this date over the years. The day after Christmas in 1971 =
really stood out to both of us.

We had been stationed in Hawaii during 1970 and 71. Near the end of 1970 =
the first major downsizing of troops in and about Vietnam was happening, =
We had to leave Hawaii along with our year old son, process out of the =
military after flying to California and head back home to Pennsylvania.=20

=20

At the same time Hawaii was prepping for a dock strike amongst the =
longshoremen. Fortunately we were able to ship our 1966 3000 to =
California just prior to the shutdown.=20

=20

When our orders to depart Hawaii finally came through we were able to =
meet up with the Healey in CA and head east.  Made it from San Jose to =
Gallop New Mexico before the water pump let go and we limped into town.  =
The local Ford dealer was next to the small motel we found to stay in =
and the garage offered to help with tools if I could find the parts. Had =
a pump shipped via the Greyhound Bus Company from San Diego (UPS, Fed Ex =
and Amazon Prime did not exist back then). Pump arrived and we installed =
it in the dealership. By the way the pump shipped was an early one with =
the pulley held on with a nut and the old one was a press fit.  Three =
spot welds with a stick welder on the nut to pulley joint held it all =
together.=20

=20

So, 50 years ago today "we three" where in Gallop enjoying peanut butter =
sandwiches, very tainted drinking water and making some new friends.  We =
were also anticipating the rest of the drive across America on what was =
left of Route 66 and what might happen along the way.=20

=20

We pulled into our hometown in western PA on New Years eve.  Another =
Austin Healey adventure completed.

=20

All the best to all of you folks. Enjoy the ride. (if you can get it =
started!)=20

Happy New Year
