Spent a day of quality time - doing the annual, lots remaining. The alternator crapped out this morning. Ammeter buried (+), but I wasn't worried - it's a Lucas, so that's probably normal...but then it shot back to zero, and then showed only zero or a discharge. I checked all the cheap stuff first, all was ok, so I took the alt. to NAPA in Wickenburg, where they had a replacement in STOCK! I was shocked. Works fine, but now have a water neck leak - that SVO chromed POS warped - bad. That's two, and I'm done. Ordering a billet one with an O-ring seal from Summit tomorrow, so might have her back on the road by Friday. Not sure if I'll make it to 66 cruise, but might if I can find a room, or just get up really early on Saturday and see if I can catch you at breakfast - not that far from here, and I won't have to scrape snow.
