Not quite a Hal tale, but...

[Jamo]

...had a great first long drive with the Kirkham. 400 miles round trip to Turk's place up in Vacaville--across the Delta. Crisp drive up Saturday morning. Came across a couple a dozen rods heading south to a car show--waves back and forth. A Cobra (a silver FFR) heading the other way as well. Another one near Turk's with no hood--in progress?

One of those great California spring days--folks out driving just for the shear pleasure of it. The Kirkham and the big bad Boghosian motor just torqued along--sucking gas at an extreme rate, oil pressure at 85 at 3K, 70 degrees cent. on the water, 80C on the oil, and no hiccups. Comfortable with the Big & Tall mods performed the Dave & Tom comedy team. Tracked true and straight even over the highly grooved and chunked Hwy 99.

As to current concerns--got the temp from the DMV with not much hassle. Called Grundy and got insured for agreed value with no mileage limit. Made it home with no tickets.

And oh, by the way--I lived to type this.

Believe it or not, the sky didn't fall...
