What?!? You mean this ISN'T the beginning of a beautiful friendship???

OK, I got a PM from 'Vickie'. She described some electrical problems she is having with her 1986 Vette. Coincidentally, they are the same problems I've had with my 1986 Vette! I remember starting a thread describing my starting/VATS problems some years back. Just a few weeks ago I posted about my courtesy lights staying on after closing the doors and subsequently draining the battery overnight. Wow, talk about coincidences! It's like 'Vickie' read my recent thread and then Searched out my previous posts. And asked for help. So as to 'set the hook', so to speak.

I'm thinking that maybe I should just offer to send her some money to get her Vette fixed.
