Thanks. Hope so. Had a chat with the nice guy at Corvair Ranch. Funny, 
he was already aware of the whole story because he read it on VV. 
Anyway, he said he'd get it in and out since it's not a big or 
restoration project. He said give him a call next week when Catherine 
returns it and departs the country, and just tell him when I'm coming. 
He said while it's in he'd try to have his guy do a nice job on the 
dash, and also fix up any problems with the bellows and trap door on the 
heating/cooling system, etc. He also said that if she makes it home, but 
I then do not make it to him, he will come get me for the rest of the 
way. Nice guy. I'll let all know when I actually go in case anyone needs 
anything, etc. Thanks,
Ralph
