Well, it wasn't yesterday, but Monday we got a break in the rain, so I started the cabrio and warmed it up. An old friend dropped by, disabled VN vet, and we shot the s...., he can't get in the roadster. Yesterday, coming home from the dentist and a temporary bridge, the roads dried out. Got to run it up the street and back. Getting old is hell, but there is the occasional reward.

Taxes and some rental property stuff. On my way to Jupiter Florida Sunday for a week of Cardinals Spring Training. Hope to get back to putting the engine and transmission back in the Bird after I get back and finish my taxes.

Greetings to all: Changed oil in my sons F150 because he doesn't have time to so much as look at his watch.  Then continued repairing the 10 inch Logan lathe I picked up last weekend. First item produced will be a custom fan spacer for my 312 powered 64 F100. Everyone on this great site take care........JEFF

The trans was giving me trouble in my 302 powered 48 conv so last week some friends helped me pull the sheet metal off the front and pull the engine and trans.  Got the trans  back yesterday and today I attached it back to the engine and attached various parts that I removed from the engine which  I had cleaned and painted..  Next day or two the engine and trans will go back in.

My YBlock cars don't need anything big to be done, will do them after the 48 is finished.

Just money making work today.  Got a little parts research done, though.

After selling off my wood working tools and giving my machine tools to my son in-law, I finished packing up all of my garage stuff for the move to Savannah. Originally I planned to rent a U-haul truck and tow my enclosed car trailer to get the gargae stuff to Georgia. But the wife didn't like the idea of me having to do the trip twice.  So I ordered up a PODS 16 footer and loaded it up with the stuff and they will haul it to Georgia. So the PODS container is just under the maximum allowed weight and pretty well fills the 1,000 cubic foot volume. I still have to haul the truck and some of the stuff PODS won't let you put in their containers in the enclosed trailer behind the motorhome. Oh, my chrome pieces will be ready to pick up on Monday.
