    Glared at it..:mad: and pushed it around the block again for yet another mow session. How grass can grow so fast with no water and extreme heat I will never understand.:D

    chances are, if the car didn't have to be moved to mow, grass wouldn't grow so fast...:huh:

    Thats what I was thinking... Oh well keeps it moving at least.
    Its amazing how easy it is to push a car up a hill even. I always thought it would be alot harder to do solo lol.

    Had to buy a new alternator and got one about exactly the same size as my old one but it puts out 74amps at idle............which is twice as much as my old one. Now, just trying to mount it is a challenge because of the limited room and electric water pump.
    I moved from a town of 100,000 to a town of 1,000,000 and you would think I could find a dozen places that would have a 3/8" x 16 grade 8 bolt that was 7" long......not one supplier.................I guess I should get used to buying all parts on the internet but $4.75cents and $10 bucks to ship it so it will be here soon....................sorry for the rant but I hate using all-thread-rod.
    The next step is the headers.......................then I will be finished and headed to the strip:burnout:
