Yesterday I took my 71 Cuda for its last cruise of the season. I wasn't able to drive it much this year. About 30 minutes into the cruise the engine shut down suddenly. I was able to drift onto a side road and park it on the side of a street. Popped the hood and started my finger poking. Not 5 minutes went by and a guy and his wife walks up and asks if I need some tools. His home was only a couple houses away. Together we determined my Edelbrock Fuel Sump was not working. He had his wife drive me to the parts store for a relay, even gave me a mask to wear into the store (mandatory) since I didn't have one with me. Well the relay wasn't the issue so the pump or hidden fuse was probably to blame. Ended up on a flatbed for the 'ride of shame' home.
Guy and wife ended up showing me his collection of 4 nice 70's camaros. He was a real car guy. Even offered to trailer my car home if I didn't have AAA. Gotta love good people like them. Told us to drop by anytime.
