I know it's not working now, but I doubt it is more than this. Just a pain to deal with. A few raps of a hammer in the middle of the gear would probably get it to latch again... until next the next time you push the button.

So much for making the show. Got the car all cleaned, Carol and I filled it with gas. Took it on the freeway for a couple of miles. Stopped by her mothers for awhile and on the way home, something let go in the engine. Definitely not a good sound and I will start pulling valve covers tomorrow.
Just hope I didn't hurt anything bad. Poopers. Have fun you guys. Larry

Poopers indeed! Sorry to hear this Larry. Let us know what gave-way.

I guess it might be the smallest group of Falcons this year.

The only Falcons at BCC this year was 2 Rancheros. Pitiful! The disappointed guy at the gate even asked me where the rest of our caravan was.

Well, as we know stuff happens. I know I wanted to go, but?? Crap breaks. Just hope I can make it to the Maltby show. That is my favorite of the year. That show is much better than the BCC show, so maybe we can get a lot of us at that one. Larry

It was by-far the smallest turnout for this show of any I've been to. Not sure why, but still saw some very unique cars and trucks. Alas, I took not one picture.
