Van at 26 is not easy to buy parts for.Went to pick and save(junk yard) and they had 1 318 Dodge engine there.I was luck and got what was needed. My van at 26 might easily be the oldest on the road. Has just over 81,000 miles.Doing so little driving and never on the free ways helps.Bert



Maybe it's time to trade her in, the van that is. The longest I ever drove a car was 20 years, and it was falling apart! I think I had a Dodge 318 in my Aspen. I didn't quite make it past a rock wall one night on my way home. Ended up selling it to a body man.

Nice fall day here, sunny, clear sky. Wind northEAST at 9 mph. Humidity down to 29%. This dry fall weather brings to mind not only football, but Buck season which will be opening here in a few days! I haven't seen any deer around here lately, but I would bet they are here hiding in the nearby areas with trees. These black tail deer are so elusive that the Indians used to think they were supernatural! I remember going out with my dad just before dawn, or just before dark in the evening to wait beside a known deer trail, rifles in hand. But our luck was never good.
