Well, after 5 years and 15,000 miles, I finally had to do a complete tune up on the ole '30 coupe. Plugs, points, cap, rotor, etc. It started running rough about a month or two ago, and was getting difficult to start, especially if it sat for any extended period of time without running, like say a week. I fettled with the car over the past 5 years doing minor things, like cleaning and re-gapping the plugs and points, and checking and adjusting the timing, but that just wouldn't cut it this time. But now it starts quickly and runs like a champ! Feels like I could run it across the Gobi again. Well, maybe not. Anyway, its nice to have the ole machine out and running like it should. Sure feels good, especially with the nice weather we've been having.

Happy Motoring,

Dan
