Gift broke down in transit!
Bad news, folks! Our gift broke down approx 30 miles west of Hays, KS, which is about the halfway point between Independence, MO and Boulder, CO!
The poor soul who was attempting to drive it to Boulder had it towed to a car dealer in Hays where my father-in-law picked it up with his flatbed trailer on Saturday to return it to MO. The car dealer thinks it may have been a fuel pump that went out. Lacking either a fairy godmother and/or a money tree, and with neither myself or my FIL being able to afford the repair at this time, the ZR1 will be "wintering" in MO and, hopefully, I will be able to afford the repair in the spring JUST in time for "Vettes on the Rockies" back out here in Frisco, CO. So, in the meantime, I will be "lurking" around the listserv (thanks for keeping it, Mom!) and the Corvette forums and collecting more info on how best to maintain my baby once it gets here. I would like to thank everyone who has provided good wishes and good advice! I will be keeping a binder with all the info/recommendations until I can pick up my car and start USING the info/recommendations. Lily '90 ZR1 turqoise/black |
