Default New shifter and 60th anniversary steering wheel

Big shout out and thanks to my Forum Friend Joe T up in Niagara Falls Ny. Couple Fridays go he spent all day installing a 60th anniversary steering wheel and a complete new MGW short throw shifter. Absolutely love them both and thrilled to have a such a great new friend. Joe you are a true friend spending all day helping me like that. Look forward to hanging out again soon and maybe doing a Spring Mountain trip.

Thanks!!!

Jim

You're very welcome Jim! Like I told you before, any excuse to drive that Stage 4 again works for me

Any time you want to go back to Spring Mtn sounds good to me, I love that place. It's too bad you couldn't find a way to skip work last week though, you missed a good trip to the Corvette Museum & factory tour.

Kevin is talking about Watkins Glen in NY or Mosport up in Canada. Any dates for those places Kevin? I have some vacation time in about a month and could see if they fall in that time frame.

Looks like I'm working those days....figures.

Yes, the parts are easy to get, just installed the same wheel & shift **** in Jim's car. Parts take a day or 2 after I order them from the dealer.
