Ah, perhaps I can modify it in some way to get the glow to show. Just something about tube glow that I love, hehe.
I agree, it would be nice to have all of the information online and preferably in an easy to find way. I've gone back and skimmed through the headlines of every post since 2010 and read quite a few. A lot of the items posted back then don't work anymore because their hosting website is down, etc. I believe the forums will be much better now since you can directly host it here which only leaves, as an inconvenience, how to find that information. The search function works although it's difficult sometimes to guess which search terms will get you results. Tags would make it more useful. A table of contents would be better. At least, that's what I was hoping to achieve with the wiki. A sort of online Chilton + much more manual to your Desoto. An online technical advisor, by year, that is available 24/7. Impossible for one man but doable with a national club.
No, I haven't gotten the car yet. I was hoping to go down this weekend but the owner hasn't replied to my last two emails (only the very first one). I know he's a very busy man and I don't want to push him (perhaps he still hasn't decided whether to keep it or not). On the other hand, I'm likely to be getting a new job in the next week or so and it's a few hours away; I may not be in the area anymore after the new job. I hope I hear from him soon.
