mr williams here. Spotted bs in my driveway about 7:00 pm last night. My
directions through Sacto were not so good so he may be calling this the 5/8
lap of America. He dropped off the goods as planned and then he asked for
some materials with which to repair a recalcitrant turn signal. Right rear.
When he opened the trunk I realized why it was important to avoid annoying
transcon fix-it tickets. Alfa Parts galore. Some appeared to have been
freshly cut from the vine. APE lightened his wallet a bit for the trip home
(only now the tail end dragged in and out of my driveway). Anyway, after
much fiddling and the application of some heavy machinery and pop rivets we
rejuvenated the light (at least it was working as he drove down the
street). God Speed Mr. Shorey.

1-80 Spotters will be on the lookout for a white Alfetta sedan, some rust,
mags, dangling exhaust.
