    Can Karen trade you in for two 23-1/2 year olds yet? :spank:

    Hey Frank, I guess old guys like you and Mike Ditka might need to take a little blue pill to 'correct the old camber settings' .............. :eek2:

    Thanks, guys!

    No blue pills here. Just needed a couple of lower control arm bushings! The top of my lower control arm was rubbing against the bottom of the steering gear box. :shock:

    And, no Steve, Karen won't trade me for a couple of 23 1/2 year olds. She says they're too high maintanence!

    I am continually amazed at what modern medicine can do for people, but I have never heard of anyone having lower control arm bushings replaced! :jd: At least your wife sees some value in you! That, or she is used to your stuff! :puzzled: Happy b-day!

    Who's Da Man? Didn't I make that call a while back, on an earlier post when you were describing how your car was wondering down the track? Been there, done that! :TU:

    Happy Birthday!

    That was for the car, Rusty. The CAR. My bushings and rod are working just fine. :Brow:

    Wayne: I do recall your long distance prognosis involving my control arm bushings! Where do I send the check? :pp

    I just want to go on record stating that Dave H. is still the ELDER statesman for Pure Stock. I'm just a spring chicken sompared to Dave. Can't speak for the rest of you young whippersnappers!

    I'll buy a round of Geritol for everyone at the PSMCDR!!!

    Yeah, very old lower control arm bushings. Had it "go away" during Friday qualifying. :rant:

    Gotta be all those 4 foot wheelies you pull on that thing. Rough on the bushings when it comes back down.

    I think that Dan and Bob might see that JATO strapped to the roof! :error: You would go off the end of the track so bad, you would end up in the pig lot at Stanton for sure! :Dou:

    Don't look now, guys, but before Ted Harbit pilots one of the Studes down the MMM track at the Fall 2005 PSMCDR, he will have celebrated his 70th birthday! (Well, I THINK he's planning on celebrating it...) Yeah, I know; he doesn't act a day over 40.

    Happy Birthday, Frank, whenever it was! BP

    AHA! I knew it! Ted is an inspiration to me. Watching Arlen Vanke and Paul Adams (Fountain of Youth Fairlane) at NMCA also is great! I turned 60 the day after the Stanton June meet last summer. No looking back now!
