Wow Jim/Kat real sorry to hear about the accident. These cars must be magnets for SUVs when we are on the way to an event. Remember when my 67 got side swiped, I thought that was bad. Hope your motor turns out to be useable. I was wondering why you never came back to the house after stopping by in early Decemeber was it? Get well soon. |

That's great news! The last time we saw them at Loco's (a few weeks ago) he sure was ready to get that go ahead from the Doc. I know he's ready to get outta that damn chair! _________________ Beth Raby |

Great!!! Its all about determination! Jim is clearly determined and ready to get on with life!
Joe, if you can get the engine out of the crashed Super maybe we can put it on my test stand at the tech day and make it run again??? That might give Jim that much more motivation! _________________ Jake Raby

If I had room to put it I would bring it up. In the next couple of days we will be taking it out and putting it back in the rail.
He wants to come up to the tech day but he doesn't know if he can make it (I will let you know). _________________ 73 Super
