Reply to "First Informal CDN Meeting"

Hello,

I will try. BUT, I regularly go to Montreal on Business. As a matter of fact - I will be there Thursday June 2, 2005.

I am changing the A/C hoses. After having the system charged 3X and failing, the A/C techs finally found the leaks - basically all the old hoses. You guys probably know the job. (It requires removal of all the interior except the carpets and head liner). I am a guy that can't take the humid heat. Driving around with a hurricane when the windows are down doesn't let me listen to the sweet sound of the engine.

I basically do ALL the work on my car - and I have done quite a bit over the last 15 years. I think I know how to do almost everything. The only things I do not do require specialised expensive tools and certification - Like A/C. I will try to make it for the week-end. It all depends when I get the car put back together.

I do plan to make it out to the Corsa Italiana car display Saturday June 18 here in Ottawa. My executive assistant said that Mark had his white car out last year.

I don't know my S/N off hand. I will post it next time.
Anyway it a "classic" '74 orange car - original paint. The same colour in Road and Tracks 50 Best Cars for 50 years. (N.B. In 1974 their choice was the DeT Pantera). I have not done any exterior work and it is rust free. It has its share of dents and dings. Mark dropped by last year and had a look.

Wish me luck.
