Robert, early estimated ETA at Addison is week of 9/9.

I will keep everyone posted. Would love to have a get together. I plan on heading down I65 with a stop at the Museum the next day.

Car arrived today at Marcs shop, safe and sound. No problems other than US Customs and.Border ripped me off for$700 duties I shouldn't have owed. But that's another story.

Marc said the car runs good. Slight hesitation at full throttle, maybe coil problem and secondaries. Now the tough part. Waiting 4 weeks to drive it home.

Don't think my car will be ready by than or we could run together as far as Atl. If ya need a lay over or anything I'm about 30 miles south of Atl. only 10 miles off I75.
