The 97 S1 rolled in and off the truck about 10:30 pm tonite (finally) !!!! 1970 miles on it, a couple of loose fasteners and not quite as good as expected, but no leaks!!! She wanted to spit and sputter upon trying to start her and the Ms. pointed out that sparks were coming from underneath.... Ground strap way loose!!! Tightened everything up, got er running and eased down the road still spitting and sputtering.... A nice good twist of the throttle later (after getting out f the hood) and she was purring like a kitten!!!!!! The Ms. is gonna take her out in the AM for the maiden voyage!!!

Someday, a long time from now, I will get one of those things and lovingly restore it bolt by bolt from the ground up...

One or more of the images or attachments you uploaded exceeded the maximum allowable upload size (which is 60 kilobytes). These images or attachments have been removed from your post. If you would like to include images or attachments, upload new files after you make sure that the size is not greater than 60 kilobytes.

Thats what I get everytime I try to post a picture!!! WTF???

Save a copy of your pictures as .JPG files, then

Crop, (Leave only the part that you really want to show)

Resize, (500 pixels wide - 600 at the most!) &

Compress (use xat.com's JPEG Optimizer and Image Optimizer)
