 Picked up Delores at Central Vermont Truck Repair (CVTR) in Rutland and returned her to Fern Lake by way of Green Mountain Garage in Brandon.  Delores has been down at CVTR since early this month to have her engine oil pan replaced.  Unfortunately (as is always the case with Delores), the new oil pan arrived at the shop damaged and could not be repaired, so CVTR is again scouring the Internet looking for one that will fit a circa 1996 Ford V-8 engine.  Any and all leads appreciated!  The stop at Green Mountain Garage was for her annual state inspection (passed with flying colors!), new windshield wipers, and a marker light cover that came up missing sometime in the past year.  Pikey came by late afternoon with the test powder coated snow guard… which also came through the process with flying colors.  He took away the other 70 for processing tomorrow.
