Does anyone know of any meets/drives/rallys/cruises happening soon in the upstate ny or northeast area?

I don't think it qualifies as a "meet", but three of us are planning to go to Watkins Glen next Monday and Tuesday for a track day. Unfortunately, I believe it may be sold out.

Otherwise not aware of anything.

No meets or drives scheduled here. Check the metro section. They do a Lake George meet as well as a drive to Bear Mountain in the spring and fall.

We used to have meets and drives, but then people started to have babies.

And then the dads had to their way out of the house.

And eventually, it wasn't worth the hassle.

Of course, by then I was too

I've been puttering on the Volvo for the past few evenings, putting back the dash parts and re-connecting the ignition wiring. Big news is that the steering wheel went back on last night. The wheel was cracked and came off in March, 2018 for repair, so that is major progress.

I still need to install the passenger seat, double check and readjust my brake pedal and my rear brakes, shoot some grease in the right side fittings and readjust my carbs, as they were running much too lean. So maybe 3 hours max.

Then I can drop the car off of the jack stands, tighten the one rear wheel nut and take the car for a ride.

A few niggling problems will remain, and with still many remaining tasks on the horizon.

Where do you find the time to do all this El Jefe? I think Greg and you don’t ever take a moments rest.
