Greg,
I didn't know you had an "Overhaulin'" team waiting to work on the car last night. Pretty impressive! Just curious, was it a Felpro gasket that gave way?
Just a bad seal I guess?

Amazing work Greg! You must have been pullling it apart as the tow truck driver was unloading your car .
Glad to hear it was just the head gasket.

Hey Greg, I'm blown away that you made such incredible progress on such short notice. As Scooter said, "WOW! You're my hero!".

I'm partial to the first one Chuck posted .
My camera was sitting on the passenger seat....I was too busy chasing Scott down to take pictures .
Great pics Chuck!

Greg - The operative word should have been "trying" to chase Scott. . Following Scott is like being a greyhound racing dog chasing the rabbit... .

Greg,
Glad to hear the memorial service wasn't needed. Congrats on the quick fix.
Scott,
Here's a version of your pic without all the wires and telephone poles in the background.

Nice pic Chuck, I'm glad Greg had a good sense of humor about the whole thing.
Hey Doug, did you ever get your dishwasher repaired? If not, you might want to have greg take a look at

Greg,
Glad to hear it was as simple as the head gasket, not that replacing it is simple it would have taken me a whole lot longer than it took you, how much caffine did you load up on?
I cant remember who I was talking to about the alignment shop down here in Gilroy, hopefully whoever it was will read this and kick me forgetting who I talked to. In any case I'm curious the name of the shop.
[edit] doh it was Doug, who already emailed me. Sorry, but hey were almost brothers right? Close enough. It was a blast hope to see you all soon
Daryl

Thanks for posting my pic Chuck. Still amazed how you can click, shoot, drive and come up with some amazing photos. I'm sure getting pics of Scott must be like herding cats.
Daryl,
In case the alignment shop in Gilroy doesn't work out, Custom Alignment does great work out of Mountain View. They certainly know how to align Cobras, but be prepared to bring $$$$$$$$$. I'm very happy with my set up.

Chuck,
I like the way you cleaned up the picture. Good work!
And here I thought I was driving conservative . Wait till the next time . You guys should have drove back on HWY 88 from Reno with a few of us.
