Never affected me, I'm "essiential." Although I hear expendable.

Well, I managed, about 2 weeks ago, to lean over the fender of the '65 and, since I was doing some grinding on some unrelated stuff, my shirt had iron filings on it and now my fender is scratched up. BAH!
I'll go to the body shop in a couple months to see what they can do to it. What a dummy! Didn't even think about it. I'll blame it on the Republican Senate - no.... they don't seem to do anything... maybe the House Democrats... yeah... Dam them democrats anyway! |

My motor guy is about to balance all my rotating assembly. Things are moving now. He referred me to a clutch guy. He is having a special order centerforce clutch made to match the motors power. Seems it is stouter than the ones they advertise.
I cleaned it yesterday did the top and all. |

I tried to bleed the brakes a few weeks ago. Can't get it to stop leaking where the front to rear line meets the proportioning valve. Mind you... all new parts: lines, prop valve, master cylinder, booster, etc.

Haven't touched it in months. Winter here, well done now, plus rotator cuff surgery in December. Put the 454 that's in it on craigslist, flooded with responses. From Chicago, Fort Wayne, Saginaw, etc. Maybe I should have listed it for more. Got everything except a flywheel for the engine that's going in.
