Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
Paul should be at the EFV8 Meet, maybe you'll run into him. He was going to ship the '39 LZ floor pans before he left for Hiawassee. Hope I get them this week. Vic

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
I don't think so, based on what he charged me for the pans

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
Rain, Rain, Go Away...
It looks like this weekend will be a wash out as far as playing with Flatheads goes, according to the weather service; we're getting rain off and on all weekend... I'm sure I'll find something Flathead related to mess with...

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
We have been inundated with rain here in the Tampa Bay Area and it's not going to subside any time soon according to the weather service... Think maybe I should start building an Ark...
The ’51 F-1 is parked on the “high ground” in the back yard and the normal water level at the Cyprus Head (aka) swamp, is just at the perimeter of the trees… The sound emanating from the swamp, a cacophony provided by the rejoicing Frogs… is almost deafening...

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
Vic,
Stay safe and dry. I hope you two don't have to seek higher ground. Are the trees stable? I remember the pics you posted the last time you had a lot of rain. It was not good at all. Chuck |

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
I tried to shoot some video of a short drive in the LZ today and I posted it on YouTube... I'm still not sure exactly how to post things but, if you'd like to take a look, go to Youtube.com and type in Cigar City Flatheads. I've posted two videos (one is for business)... Hope you enjoy the Zephyr ride...

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
Ok, if you go to YouTube, type in: 1939 Lincoln Zephyr Convertible Club Coupe and that should take you to the thumbnail so you can click on it and watch... It's much easier to work on the Zephyr than to mess with computers...

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
WOW... The sun is out and it’s not raining... what a treat! I was so happy to see the sun that I brought some cars out and did a video of the '39 CS, I'm uploading it to YouTube right now... Sure glad to see the sun again. Now maybe we’ll be able to get some work done on the ’51 F-1 transmission swap this weekend.

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
I watched your video of the 39. It's kool to be like a passenger in it & hear it go through the gears. I like the looks of that car. I'm curious though about the video. The image kept bending, sort of like watching a reflection in a pool. You've got some vehicles that I wouldn't kick out of my garage Vic.

Ken, I know, it looks like U-271 surfaced in my yard...

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
You could just paint it yellow and hang a picture of the Beatles on it.

Vic It breaks my heart to see that pretty `51 pickup sitting out in the weather! Bud

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
Bud, it's a Ford truck, most likely it spent most of its life sitting out in the weather... At the moment I've got all the convertibles in the garage... I hope to get started on the transmission swap in the '51 F-1 this weekend; we'll be installing a '49 Merc with Over Drive...

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
I'd rather go on a Magical Mystery Tour with Sgt. Pepper down Abby Road...

Re: What I Did on My Lunch Hour
I think I'd rather go down Abby Road with Lovely Rita The Meter Maid. It's funny I was never a big Beatles fan but their songs do stick.
