    SSHHH! This is the "Man Secret" in the "Tool Section" of "The Book Of Man Law". On page 10,325 paragraph 14, and I qoute," The key to spending money for your progect Car, lies in the home (the house). If a man would have tools he must remodel the house for his woman. When the woman conects controling her man, by remodeling "Her" house with the concept of the purchase of tools to acomplish her desire, she must surrender or feel guilt when the man purchases tools for his car. MUUAAH!:rofl2:

    I sat with the Dolls today next to their great looking red 77 and I could not see a flaw in the paint. There were 2 more there that Dale painted and they were also flawless :thumbs2:

    Craig likes orange too LOL!

    I really wanted to get my car out one last time before I stripped the interior....but it's so hot. I got up early and started taking the seats out. By 9am it was too hot.

    I never read the Man Law Book but intinctively knew that rule anyway... hence the reason I've been so feverishly reomdeling/repairing the house and building a playhouse for my daughter (ok, that one I just plain wanted to do...). Only one more big job left on the list - gotta re-roof the 12 in 12 roof :cry:, then it will be MY TURN to :drive:

    couldnt for the life of me get it to power under load it just stalled....

    bypassed the mechanical fuel pump and ran a inline little electric and she screamed to life!

    Looks like im sucking air in the fuel line which I guess the mechanical pump cannot take and the electric can?

    New thread time...

    I am still drilling out spot welds to remove the cage from the parts car, to go on the 1970 Maverick. It's a slow process.
