Geesh, it never ends!!!
100pm--rolled the dice & decided odds favored driving GN over, rather than chance old tow truck breakdown instead...
130pm--reserve room for nite in Brlngtn
230pm--gonna gas-up GN but tranny won't select gears properly--make it half way outa driveway...therefore can't even load it on trailer for that matter
245pm--get car back in driveway off street (manipulate shift lever from under car (em. brake set) & determine cable broken (removed console)...
250pm--call local Buick dealer for cable/ assy & none locally--closest one in Rowland, NC (about 1hr20 min away)
255pm--verify w/ NC dealer that he does, in fact, have part (he does)...
305pm--head out in my quest for part
430pm--arrive at dealer--purchase part--$74.95 list BTW...
440pm--leave dealer for return trip home...
610pm--arrive home hungry & thirsty (but gotta keep on keepin'on ya know)..
640pm-- head out to driveway (cold by now, of course) w/ cable assy in hand and several stiff belts under my belt
740pm--all done, car back on the ground, wash up, come inside & set down to dinner...
745pm-815pm--do dinner...
815pm-855pm--here on-line with my saga/ dribble--kinda winding down...
I GUESS I'LL JUST GAS-UP ON THE WAY TOMORROW A.M....
Gotta go pack some units & tools, etc. for road-trip...See y'all tomorrow--for sure!?!? Hope it goes better...
