Just wanted to mention that yesterday afternoon I had a nice, random, encounter with a member of the brickboard! While attending my nephew's 12th birthday party, I noticed that someone at the cookout was driving a 245. I asked my brother in law who's vehicle it was and I happened to belong to a fellow brickboarder, Leugim (real name Miguel). Unfortunately I wasn't driving my 245, but we had a nice chat. We talked about some common car troubles (stalling after start-up, and heater control valve replacement), good pick-n-pull junkyards, and where we purchase our replacment parts on-line. Later we walked over to his 245 to look under the hood! Leugim even mentioned that he has run into Art Bernstein (sp?) and that he was a great and helpful guy too! It's funny how small the world is and how something like the brickboard and driving an old volvo can make you feel comfortable with a total stranger. It was nice to meet you Miguel, and let me know if you ever need a hand with your volvos!
