I am getting a lot of hints from the hubby that maybe it is time to store the car. I don't want to..... I know that I have to, but now the weather is not cooperating, rain is not my friend. I will not take the car to storage knowing that it is wet, and I don't want to spend an hour there wiping all the cracks to make sure it is dry before I put the cover on it. So for now I am happy with it sitting in the garage waiting for a dry day.

I was looking for a stereo for the chev. Wow the stud type radios are getting rare as hen's teeth. I found a 160W 80 per channel with a SD Card player and a USB outlet. That don't require dash modifications. It will do for now. I wanted a detachable faced one. But they just won't fit in there. I can hunt again later but for now I happy to have the hole filled. The AM can continue to collect dust on the shelf for years to come, LOL.

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! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3YA...ature=youtu.be I guess it was worth it....lol  Money, quite literally, running down the drain!

Damn Eric!!
Your mechanical "adventures" continue to amaze me. You've had the strangest things happen with that '70.Next time...spray a little WD40 or PAM cooking spray on that fender before the burnout. Clean up much easier.
