So....part 2 of this saga. Yes, we thought it was the flaps. Yes, we drove the car home with no problem. Yes, everything was fine for nearly 1000 miles, not even noisy. Then today, Thanksgiving Day, we drove down to a state park about 50 miles away. No problems getting there. On the way home, something changed. We now have the worst sound that we've heard, again right rear, a real click/clunk/tap sound, speed dependent. We limped home. So, I guess we go back to CV joints after all. New questions:
1. Obviously it needs to go to the mechanic, who is 50 miles away, mostly 2-lane highway and interstate. Drive or flatbed?
2. What happens if Something Bad happens on the way and it totally fails?
3. What are the warning sounds/events before this happens?
4. Is this a DIY job for the average guy who restored a 356, does brake jobs, changes oil?
