Long day yesterday!
Started the day on the way to a local car show. Did a u-turn to double back to the entrance of the facility, hit it and grabbed 2nd gear, the car sputtered and shut off.
4 hours later we determined the $400 MSD ignition box took a dump, likely fried the coil in the process, as it went bad too, the rotor came apart and blew a hole in the back of the distributor cap. So the ENTIRE ignition was pulled out and basically replaced. The distributor was taken apart as one of the rotor screws disappeared and I wanted to make sure nothing got down inside before putting it all back together.
So, we got the car running on a cheap MSD box from 1970 something until I can get a new replacement.
Decided to not let the entire day be a waste and went to the local cruise in.
One of the more expensive "cruise-ins" I have been to in a while as this was put on, and allowed by the local police department.
My DNA would not allow me to just sit by and watch a burnout competition and not participate so....
You can hear people in the crowd, "that's the one that broke down earlier." Yeah, that is right, it broke, we fixed it, and then I took it back out and beat the living snot out of it! All in a good days work!

Money, quite literally, running down the drain!
