G mernin everybody. Had a productive weekend and got neither the dent or flat Vette running this weekend. Vette is close, we have fuel, fuel pressure and spark, just need to fix the backwards wired plug wires and put a new fuel filter in, the old one split on top and was spraying the floorboard. Got the dent ready to fire, hit the key and the key wouldn't turn, previous owner had two Ford vehicles, the other a 3/4 ton van, I think he put the van key in the truck ignition and assumed it was the right key. now to wait on him to call me back. Either that or replace the ignition cylinder, door locks and toolbox key cylinders.

Howdy folks I'm back in town and maybe for more than a week? Still bummed that I missed the swap meet.
But after I left the airport I got a hold of a guy, I have got parts from in the past.
and got a Edelbrock carb with a "off-road" kit in it, should help ol Red issues?

Will do there Ches, change his firing order on his plug wires and then charge him to fix it.
My sleep cycle is a messed up, its 03:00 am I am wide awake, it always takes a day or two to get back to normal.
I found some tow style mirrors for my Dodge (craigslist), going down to Mt Vernon to get them this afternoon.
Think another coil pack went out on Penny's Expedition will get it looked at today, they are a PITA to change if it the back one's.

Good morning youins. No real car work done last night. I bid a couple paint jobs and when I got home, the wife was polishing on the convertible. We worked for a couple hours on it and might get to drive it this weekend. Just got to find all the missing parts. oops.
