Almost made it! The Dart stalled at the corner of West Crogen and Langley about 430p...Lawrenceville Police arrive at 5p to push me to shoulder...AAA arrived at 730p....lots of offers to help... A few stopped to talk about the car...several folks alerted me to the classic car show at the fairgrounds...a couple of offers to buy it...only one creepy guy! Basically I held a private car show at the corner of West Crogen and Langley! Sorry I missed it! Next year I'm in!! (It's probably the alternator... Now power to dash or ignition but electric convertible top works...battery shows power but no spark otherwise...)
