Glad this is the shortest month.

Hope all have a good week.

70* something warmth means hell-e-aious storms are just around the corner.

Batten down the hatches.

Greetings from the Gulf of Mexico, hope all is well. Having a bit of weather out here at the moment. (typical of David's favorite month!)

Y'all be safe!

I think you got the tail of what swatted us Tuesday. 3-5 inches locally in Rankin Co. Parts of Pearl reverting to a lake. I've got to cover a bunch of stuff trying to bud too damn early. Neighbor still has green leaves on an old oak. Almost willing to bet we get March snow.

Why do we all start projects and let them sit for so long before getting around to doing something with it?

Rebuilt the carb on the '68 yesterday. Monkey'd with the timing (broke my timing light). Got it doing burn outs in the gravel. Revs up good with no spitting back.

Next project - mufflers and brakes.

Y'all have a good weekend.

If you spend for V-day, hope its worth it & it pays off... (Gator has to pay for it all the time)

Terri & I are checking out for the week near some salt water & slightly warmer climate. Have a good one, y'all.

This pic shows the general condition of the body. It has some rust. Running gear seems solid.

Rear brakes aren't connected. Right front caliper isn't getting fluid. Gonna start cracking lines and see where the trouble is. Prolly gonna replace them all in time.

Got the exhaust all connected today. Much quieter now. It would hardly run when I cranked it the first time after connecting the pipes. Had to hammer on glass packs and tail pipes to knock the dirt dobber nests loose.

Still got a long way to go.

Happy Valentines Day folks!
Mitch

Just ordered stromboli at little place on 30A just down from seacrest fl. Yum.

The whole panhandle got roughed up yesterday. Luckily nobody got hurt. Beautiful day today.
