Just back---from my cars first inspection---

I had been told that an El Mirage inspection was the VERY Through---I belive 
it...

I left Phoenix yesterday at 2:15 PM---AC went out in the first 5 miles---press 
on, press on  it is good training for B'Ville in August...  got there  at 10: 
45 PM---could not believe I g\found it in the dark... Woke up at 5:30 am;  
after sleeping in the front seat of my truck, to see Jack  of Nebulous fame 
looking over my car on the trailer...I took this as a good omen


8:30---11:00 AM   I especailly would like to thank the INSPECTORS----who give 
of their TIME---   

The car was looked over three times in during this time---by a team of two by 
Jim Miller solo  then by another team---bottom line:

fifteen items:  some of which I was aware of---several of which I hadn't even 
thought of,  and several of which I don't understand completely,---but I will 
comply with  GLADLY---one Item I felt very strongly about and worked had to 
sell my point...

The down side---many friends and aquaintances from the list I didn't get to 
vist withbecause of my preoccupation wit this INSPECTION---I apoligize---but I 
have SALT FEVER___
