[Shotimes] who can help me?

[Carl Prochilo]

My 92 has never stranded me.  To keep it roadworthy, I have invested a lot
of time and dollars into it.  Also had the benefit of someone who knows
their way around a SHO (you know who you are).  I'm sure others have
similar stories.

I suppose I should have confidence to drive the car for 1200 miles or so
in one shot, but I do acknowledge the age of the car.  Am fairly confident
with 300 mile trips and have done a few of those in past 6 months.  I'm
still on the fence of going to the convention.  I have to feel as
confident as George does before I make the commitment (and of course
seeing how work schedule allows time).
