I tryed to fix it on the side of the road but had no pressure to the systems when done. I carryed a spare p/s pump, alt, water pump, complete distributor, and gaskets for the intake. If anything else goes, I am towing it home.
Anyway I am going to meet Ed on the 15 of Nov in Columbus and hope there are no other problems and that Ed doesn't have a foot of snow to remove from his house and garage. Thats about all for now. Talked to Doug the other night. Cemo is kicking his butt, but is done for now and is hoping to start feeling better soon. He thanked me about 10 times again. I think my ear is starting to fall off. Anyway He hopes to have a chance and MAYBE be flying again in the spring, weather it be in the skys or on the ground in the cobra. It's something he is looking forward too. Rick L.

Guys,
Can you believe what Rick is doing to get this project moving along? He's all the way in NJ, yet he's got up in the wee hours of the morning, drove all the way through NJ, got a good way into PA, had the truck break and muscled a broken truck all the way back to NJ. Now on the 15th of November he's planning to do it all over again, all out of an incredible sense of decency and generosity. Guys, Rick's just an amazing guy, and like DV and Doug and Ed and so many countless others I can never thank him enough. I'm still just bowled over by what they and all off you have done and are doing. I can't tell you how on the very worst of days going through this what you guys are doing keeps me going. Thank you, thank you, a million thank yous to all of you!
Doug
