Just the usual paranoia, in case the KGB still holds a grudge after half a century ;-)

I totally understand that. that would include our government also. your formula for mold removal looks like it worked well, how much of each did you mix, I am always afraid of bleaching things out.

It was half a bucket of hot water and just a couple capfuls of bleach. I then added a one second squirt of dishwashing liquid. I used a wash cloth to washed the upholstery. I kept rinsing the wash cloth off in the water bucket. I let it dry and then repeated the process with a new batch of water/bleach/soap. It worked great.

Very nice car Bentwheelbob! Is it a true 455 HO? Black on black it appears?

I finally got home last night about midnight and was able to see the Black Car in person for the first time. Wow. I went to the DMV this morning and got it registered and picked up a temporary hard plate. This evening I got home from work, put on the plate, fired it up and away I went. I've only got a few things to say....

- Ho Lee Shet...

- DAMN!!!

This was my first time driving a 455HO and I was not disappointed. Compared to the Hemi in the Yellow Car which wants 5 to 7 minutes warming up before rolling down the road, the Black Car fired right up and was ready to roll with little warm up. Once up to operating temp, the Black Car ran fantastic. Quiet, tight, no rattles and power to spare. It doesn't feel like it has as much top end as the Hemi, but it sure felt like it got to 110 mph quicker and with less drama. Much tighter and quieter car, although the M-22 did seem a little whiney. I've got to get the truck done now as this makes me really anxious to get the Pat Brown 455HO transplanted into the Red Car.

Tomorrow is supposed to be a beautiful day and I am looking forward to taking a longer cruise. Today being Friday the 13th, I did not want to risk the positive karma around this car by traveling too far from home.

Congrats on the new ride Bob, wish you many happy miles!
