Default Nice Day!

God is it nice out or what? So nice & warm & sunny. Sure glad I spent 8 hrs at work today, and all afternoon installing my gas tank & rear end!

Oh, did I mention I got the gas tank in & the rear end hung? Might even have it ready for a test drive tomorrow.....

it snowed here last night so it has been to cold to be out side all day long. We went out earlier to clean up the garage that way my brother can bring over Dans new engine for his truck a pretty 327.

I'm looking forward to seeing the obnoxious beast at the track as well... Plus Mark's car is nice to see too.

If you've ever installed a 9" by yourself, you know how much of an accomplishment yesterday was for me!

Looks like it's going to be nice today too. Guess I better get going hooking up all the misc stuff. Hey Ellis, since your POS will be the reigning Jack Stand Queen for a while, can I borrow your driveshaft?

Well I have done the 12 bolt, and while it is a bite lighter, it still isn't any fun by yourself! Good luck on getting her rolling today!

Well, it runs....sort of. Took it out for a test drive. It was fine until I stepped on it a little. I think I either have a fouled plug or an injector that is clogged. So it's back in the garage until I get it sorted out. And it's SO nice out too.....

I went to the beach today, even drove on it. Was a nice day out at Ocean Shores. And the car got around 23mpg too which isn't too bad for a scenic drive.
