Poor Sophy, she had so many little problems in her shakedown cruise.
The jet plug that fell out while driving, but waited patiently on the
tin to be found and reinstalled, the idle jet that wouldn't stay
open, the left carb that came loose from the manifold....
Then there was my '69 in 2002 which had brake light switch failures
and then needed a new RF brake hose after I tried to get them working
by stomping on the brakes really hard.
Jason Cornfeld's disaster waiting to happen: a tie rod end so worn
that it was a miracle that it stayed together.
Good times! ;-)
