good morning Pat!

Looks like we are getting your rain today, has been going all morning and doesn't look like it will let up any times soon. We need it though!

Good evening again Pat.

I cleaned up and painted some parts for the Jag today.

I also finally replaced the flasher in the 62 so the turn signals work again. I may try to drop the pan and slip in a main seal to see what happens.

Good morning Pat!

Well yesterday I assembled the steering rack and painted it along with the steering shaft. Those will be the next parts to go in the car so I will be able to push it around and steer it where I want it to go. After that I will start on wiring and motor accessories like alternator, power steering pump, belts, hoses, carbs, cables, and whatnot. Tedious stuff.

I hate it being warm like it is now, and not being able to work on mine. I guess I'll have all summer off to work on it, but I'm ready to go now! Damn 12 hour shifts!

I agree. Spring is always so busy, I too would like to work on my own stuff and get it going but can't.

And with only having one day off, I have a ton of other stuff to get done, so getting any garage time is pretty slim pickin's.

Threads only show up in my subscribed threads if someone posts in it Tim.

They used to be in there whether there was a new post or not, I liked that much better!

Good morning Andy and the Wisconsin crew! Yeah, they did a software update that does that now, Andy. I'm not a big fan of it either.

Good evening Pat! Can it be fixed or is it not an issue?

Morning Wisconsin! Unfortunately, it's designed that way, so, we'll have to live with it, Andy.
