Thank you for the update. Gail will be missed. She helped me so much with my stalled Citicar(s) project. Last I saw her I helped her fix a battery radio she used a lot. She sure had the information on so many of the early electric cars. Hope it has been preserved. She kept tabs on me and my Leaf I repaired. I bought it from another club member and had been damaged. It was fun getting it registered as the repair shop did not mark if the muffler passed or failed the inspection process. It is still used every day!
