I have been told you are either a "Brake Operator Of Bullitts" man or an "Acronym Support Systems" man.... but I have to share that I am able to function as both.

I guess I am evolved :-)

Engine ready to go in!

In the engine and car shot it looks like the car is saying "lets take this outside" and the engine is saying " I am going to get in your face" .
Best standoff I have seen since High Noon.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I appreciate it! I try and make this whole restoration process entertaining since we all could use some encouragement now and then when things go awry with these cars. And in other news, I can’t believe I used “awry” in a sentence!

Cheers

Dave

I can use that word in a sentence; "I'd like a ham and cheese sandwich awry"

Thanks guys! Can't wait to get back from this trip and get some more things bolted on. I'll be hooking up a battery to test all the lights and such too. Before I left I gutted my smog pump, so it's all ready to go.

I appreciate the compliments!

Cheers
Dave
