Sleeper been there with the stones. . .

Aug 94 taken out in surgery
Oct 94 crushed with sound waves and guess passed the fragments that remained
Jul 96 surgery again..

 

I've had just one episode with Kidney stones in 1973 - on my honeymoon in the Bahama's! While I now have been through major surgery to remove 2/3 of my stomach & my esophagus due to cancer the pain of that stone remains THE worst I have ever experienced. I cannot imagine going through it multiple times. After all these years I can still remember it all too well. Hope you feel better very soon.

 

Well I have been prepping for the Tail of the Dragon Cruise in Tennessee on the 20th -23rd. Yesterday I painted the ugly yellow oil dipstick handle blue to match my calipers, custom strut brace and rear sway bar. Today I repainted my grille. Tomorrow I will do some accent painting to my door panels that I've been wanting to do. Sunday I will re-polish the valve cover and intake tubing and apply some new chrome accent moulding around the lower billet grille and fog light openings.
Before I leave on the 20th I will completely detail the whole interior, clean and condition the leather seats and clay bar the whole thing and get the oil changed for the trip. Also getting a grey/black leather wheelskin for the steering wheel before I leave.

 

The usual commute to Charlotte and back today in Paddy, along with the usual traffic jams both ways, thank God for XM or I'd go bug nutty sometimes.

 

Spirited driving in the rain..... with side winds. Love these Goodyear Eagles/Sway Bar/Ground Force springs....... The "Wagon" is so glued, even in bad conditions.

 

Priority snail mail brought the new face for the boost gauge, put it in, like I knew what I was doing. Looks great, THANKS, so much for the design help.

 

 

I watched mine leave the driveway this morning and return this afternoon - with the wife at the wheel both times.

 

More driving today, the ride is running fine !!!

 

Glad to hear it sleeper, how are the kidneys doing buddy?
