Starting to get antsy
 

Supposed to be nice all week. Can't put the rear end on the Chevelle back together, waiting for the new control arms and bushings to arrive. Can't pull the dash out to repaint and install the gauge package I have. We have a pole right in the middle of our 2 car garage so I can't open either door all the way. Need to pull the car out and back it in. Car is all the way to the front of the garage so I can work on the rear end, so I can't do much under the hood. Sure hope those control arms show up soon.

I hear ya, Last week I decided to see if mine would start after sitting all winter. It fired right up. first time in years I've been able to do that in the spring. Now I just need to get some insurance back on it so I can drive it.

I know that antsy waiting very well. Its usually well worth the wait to get er done right :)

Got the rear end out of mine too... swapping the 12-bolt 4.10 for a 9" 3.50, installing the new Helwig chassis-mount rear sway bar, and some single-adjustable Alston Varishocks.

Today is a beautiful day, and I'm home sick... puked 3 times last night, and my stomach still hurts. My 2yo son puked 5 times, but he seems to be over it already.

Drove the '67 to work today. :p

I drove mine to go do some estimates too :D

I've found the car is a great conversation piece and gets people to open up a bit and realize that as a contractor I am not just out to screw them, I have a human side too.

Oh man!! I hear you Hank, I'm getting antsy with mine too. Things just keep getting in the way of finishing this cam swap I'm in the middle of. Too bad they don't sell patience at the parts store.:p

They do. I'm just to impatient to look for it :D

Always at least one southern guy that has to do that to us northern guys.

This week would definitely be a good one to have the car out. Our garage is a standard 2 car, not a lot of room in there. Just can't get motivated to go work on the car when it's cold and gray outside. Once you can open the doors and be comfortable it's time to get going.

EDIT: Derek, hope you're feeling better soon.

Feeling much better today :) Must have been something we ate...

I should be able to get the rear axle painted and ready to put in this weekend, and hopefully be able to drive the car in a couple weeks. :)

Good deal, glad you're feeling better. UPS says my control arms and bushings will be here tomorrow. :D

Hey Hank...Come on up and take this ragged-ass Nomad for a spin! I've had it out a few times already. Took the HD for a nice ride today. Cut down some ash trees, filled some holes in the yard, worked around the pond a little. Weather was absolutely perfect today.

Oh Tony I don't know if I could handle the Nomad. Maybe I could beat the daylights out of that L78 for you, I know it doesn't get to see the open road that often. :D

I see you are here, didn't know when I replied in the other post. What say we get together some weekend, you and Kathy, Lynda and I, Ray and ?. Maybe grill some burgers, practice up for Frankenmuth.

Sounds good to me.
