    Have you tried jumping the starting solenoid? See if that went out, those always tend to be my problem.

    :Handshake My cars made it to Brigham City and Provo (Oops! Logan) no problem although it's a loud noisey ride and I feel like I need fourth and fifth gear. We will all have to remember to bring cameras.

    I don't care where, I would say March is perfect. A couple weeks for me to get my car mufflered up and legal. Maybe even get the 72 bumpers on and the 72 hood. Plus better weather is better. Of course down here in the valley is closer, which is nicer.

    Time to show off some cell phone pics of the Maverick from the owner, I get it this Sunday!!! Sucks though, I got confused and thought that Idaho Falls was on the west side, closer to Boise, nope, that is Twin Falls. So I get a long drive to Boise to visit my wife and back down. Looks like my Maverick will get a quality check this weekend.

    Paint chipped here, hopefully easy to fix.
