spent the afternoon puttering in the shop and got some things done-
Valve springs backed off
fogged cylinders
float bowls drained of fuel
coolant drained from rad and block
fuel cell emptied
put car on jackstands
drained 3 bottles of Sleemans Genuine Draft
April sure seems like a long way off, but it will come eventually! |

Man, I'm "hoping" to fire mine up BEFORE Dec 31...for the first time!
Getting closer though..
Just some wiring lose ends to ties up, re-mount the fenders and god knows what I haven't thought of yet to change...then I'm good to go! |

Well, I put the car away today for the year, I don't need to do all the stuff you race car guys do but she's done for the year. Still have a leak but seems to be alot better than before. Not sure how to persue it any farther than I already have but I'll worry about that over the next 6 months.
Sure been quiet on here. Where is everyone?? I think Trevor fell off the Earth and OlBlue must be hanging up the keys since he won't put a cage in and be legal.
WHAT'S HAPPENING????
Don.
