This time I was in my '70 bug, coming back to Amherst MA after a camping weekend in NH. This had been a really good autocross car, always a strong finisher in the Worcester Area Sports Car Club meets at Worcester airport.
But on that rainy October Sunday the #3 exhaust valve again dropped into the piston and killed the engine. No warning at all. Compression was fine, car ran great. Towed car to my dorm, yanked the engine, ordered parts, rebuilt it in the dorm. Drove home at Thanksgiving.
A PITA for sure, but a lot to be said for a car you can fix with pretty basic tools in a few afternoons. It went on to take Fast Time of Day at an autocross in VT the following summer.
