Me again!
I did have to fill the driver's side front shock. It was stiffening up
but I never did compare it with the passenger side. I shall snoop that
one next spring. Bushings felt good to me, they were new.
On a couple of backroads I was getting the hang of it. Checking out
the shocks again is in order though. Gravel is fun especially if you
don't have the $5000 worth of paint and bodywork.
To Bob Kitterer: I agree about what a sports car was. I just have to
get some driving time in and remember that Bugsy is not a big boat which
reacts a half second after the wheel is turned.
To Larry Miller: I could almost think this is steer by look. Wires not
included (seat belts for that matter, too). Just as I don't steer by
grabbing for the baseball cap thats blowing away. I gotta find a hat
that will stick to my head better.
To Doug Wilson: Was that Toe out? or an offcenter or tilted rear end?
