Greg, That was Bill Wessel (didn't Bill used to be on this list?) and the car is a 1600, not a 2000! Bill drove a heck of a race to 3rd place, as did Mark Dennis to put his 510 in 1st. If Jeff Winte

Brian, If I follow you correctly at least she refers to the boat as "ours", but probably not the roadster. At least not yet. It's still your WOFTAM. Look at it this way, you are at a break even poin

Probably 1156 for the single element bulbs, 1157 for the dual element ones. Semi-educated guess since I can't actually go check. Those were the most common number for tail and parking light set ups
