The Ford Barn

This is the day I have been waiting for since November.

It is "spring" in Michigan, 40 degrees and ready to start driving. Eleanor, the 31 Tudor, is back down on the ground with the tire pressure checked and the newly painted fenders back in place. Engine and transmission oil checked, radiator level adjusted, battery installed and gas added. The EVR arrived from Tom Wesenberg last week and was installed in the generator.

The ammeter shows a slight discharge when the ignition key is turned. Gas on, choke up, press the starter. All right! Running like it should. Increase RPM and the ammeter is showing nice, solid charging. This is it!

Life is Good!

40 degrees here in Wisconsin as well. Had ride in a 30 Tudor and a 35 Ford yesterday. And yes, spring is here and we survived yet another loooong winter! Say hi to Eleanor for us.
