Nothing on the car today. At Peterson museum today.

Get well soon.
I’ll be there. Always found some part I needed when I went.
RIP Roland. I got his autograph when I was a kid at the March Meet in Bakersfield.
I would remove the electric fan and just run the mechanical one. But I would definitely use a shroud. That will allow the fan to pull heat from...
