More like frustration! My back-porch roof needs work, but I haven't even been able to even start prepping it because this winter's been so crappy. And my '84 TD is the only vehicle I have for hauling porch-repair stuff (like five 12' galvanised ribbed roof-panels). Well two weeks after the weather was finally decent enough to replace the rear axles, because I have no garage (and one week after my return from Virginia Beach) the alternator quit. Now I DO happen to have a spare alternator I MIGHT be able to use, but it's in - LOL - Virginia Beach! My brother is there today so he promised to bring it with him when he gets back. But if I can't get the TD self-charging soon, I may just put a battery-charger on her long enough to at least make a couple trips to Lowes.

Happy Motoring, Mark
