Steering question, successful long trip

[Jim Ozolins <j_ozolins@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just returned from a trip where I put 430 miles on my '64 Valiant.

The car performed very well, partly because I replaced the junk alternator 
and tired battery before I left. I did notice that there was plenty of play 
in the steering - on the highway, I had to work to keep it centered in the 
lane, especially during gusty winds.

I plan on getting the steering and the front suspension into good working 
order next, and fixing a leak in the radiator. Other than that, I was really 
happy with the car on this long trip.
Also, the high temp yesterday was 99, and I had no overheating problems, 
except immediately after one long stop for traffic.
