Got the front suspension and complete disc brake rebuild project completed this afternoon on the wagon.
Along with new fan belts, hoses, and valve cover gaskets...I'm now ready for the trip to the Ohio show next week.
That is...I will be after a front end alignment appointment on Monday...

Got a front end alignment and a nightmare oil change. I am so glad the day is over. Tomorrow I will start with a tire balancing at 8am. Just hoping tomorrow goes better than today.

Get to clean off the hamburger grease off my car tonight from the barbeque smoke today at the car show. I was parked at least 100 ft from it today, but still got on the car.

Dropped off at the upholstery shop for new headliner, package tray, carpet and getting the console done. Hope to have it back next week.

With only one "good" arm, I went out and accomplished this:



Not an exact, perfect restoration. (most concourse restorations have Quanta polish their drive shaft, then apply the stripes in a lathe) But, I drive all of my junk. So, used a wannabe "bare steel" paint, satin clear, and then used some basic enamel paints for the stripes today. I had the main drive shaft done about a month ago, just hadn't had time to get down to the paint store to get three pints of what I needed for the stripes. Truly wanted to do more, but I am just unable to do much right now.
