Re: All righty then !!!!
After I go blow the snow off the driveway..Take off the electric pump and put the mech. set up back to original..All the parts came yesterday...I may still leave a elec. pump ,but I'll make sure it's a "quiet one" and will flow through...Then put a switch under the dash for it if I need it....The guy I got the car from Attacked the "Non Vented Gas Cap Problem" with a giant,noisy,electic pump....Then set the reg to 1/2 lbs...I still don't know why it didn't suck the tank into a "Crushed Beer Can " ...

Re: All righty then !!!!
Picking up some F-1 brakes today....gonna clean, paint, replace internals, and set them up on my '39 spindles. I'm also planning on getting back to that window issue I posted about a few weeks ago. I put it aside to work on some other things...hoped it would fix itself, but no dice.

Re: All righty then !!!!
a buddy was here today, 60 degree weather and pestered me to get the 41 fire engine up and running, maybe after plowing the garden, running the tiller thru it several times, putting down lime, mulch, till again---on second thought the truck is calling me--bye for now!!

Re: All righty then !!!!
Going to work on the car tomorrow. Get the horn rod back in, hook up the rest of the wire harness for the coil, starter part. Yank the rest of the lights harness out. Replace radiator hoses. Then I am going to pull the headlight buckets so I can work on them at home. Oh and pull the fuel gauge to look into redoing it and pull the brake handle to get replated....swap rear bumper for nicer one I picked up.

Re: All righty then !!!!
Put new rings in the 36 woodie, new dash cover and dash pads for the 63 corvette convertible, finish up the last 5% of a 29 roadster restoration, pull the mitchell OD from the 28 open cab pickup. Seems I've been a car mechanic since retiring 3 years ago.

Re: All righty then !!!!
Going to install the tail light cross over harness and the body harness and maybe new stoplight switch--rewire all the way to the dash harness junction (will finish dash rewire once the new intake set up is installed). Install Fuel guage wire too. Re install fuel tank because the fuel filler neck is not lining up correct. And if time permits, install rear axle frame bumpers. Gonna be 58F today. TM
