OCA Nationals trip from hell
the drive up was fine, got to Seven Springs Friday, and rained hard (good to meet you Guy) Now am sitting in Breezewood, PA with a blown waterpump on the 75 88. I got real lucky and caught it very early on the turnpike but will not have the part till this afternoon.

hard to keep track but I think I replaced it 15k miles ago, and according to the shop, it is OLDS only, other 350 will not fit mounting bolts

Now see, had it happened on the way TO Seven Springs, you could have put in for the hard luck award
 .As it is, I think one of the guys from Oldspower may have it. He got a $150 ticket  on the way in from Pittsburgh Friday morning trying to get the car on the field in time for judging.

Jeff - Great to meet you too!
Sorry you had a problem. We missed you the rest of the day on Friday - It would have been nice to have company while wiping my 75 Friday afternoon. Donna says Hi too. We'll be in touch! GUY |

hi Guy, could have been worse... 24 hrs and $220, not bad. Got down to Skyline Drive for an hour or so, saw deer, bears, and just checked in to crash. TTYS
