Re: Something Wicked This way comes
 
Day 2 heading to Enterprise AL to see my son who is currently in Pilot training and due to graduate Soon. In Mongomery AL an hour away from Enterprise the Battery light came on so I pulled over to a gas station. The alternator was smoking hot and smoldering. I tried to start the car and no Bueno. So I walked to Pep Boys and then a GM dealership with pop just to see laughably if a alternator was available....again no surprise no Bueno. So we arranged for a rental as we await the replacement alternator from Jerry. So we left the car secured at the dealership and headed to take my son out to dinner. A lot of folks called and offered to help as well. So we took my son to the best steakhouse in Enterprise AL. Once again thanks for all the support.

We are going to the Aviation museum tomorrow so I will take lots of photos to update here as a lot of folks don't have the opportunity to see it

Keep us posted on how it runs and especially how that automatic works for you. I have an automatic from a 1990 L98 on the bench just in case. I wonder if it is the same automatic you have in that ZR-1? :D

Installing a new oil pan gasket on a low mileage 1990 ZR0-1 today (#072).

Hey Cliff it's from a 95 donor car. It runs very well. Chuck is sending a CD of all the photos.

Your issues kind of happened at the right time as you guys can spend some time together as the Z is being fixed..........and only an hour out of your way :cheers:

Have fun and that automatic Z will be interesting ;)

Chuck did some great documentation......I did not know that Z had so few miles on it.

MOH receipiant Fred Ferguson. I worked with him in the Arizona Army National Guard for about ten years until he retired, I was honored to be colleague and friend. He is a Professional aviator all the way. He received the MOH from president Nixon as a Major. He reverted to Warrent Officer and retired as a CW5. He loved salsa. Could never get enough and it matched his personality
