Well I've been busy with the car. Getting the steering gearbox changed tomorrow, new radio is on the way, and got the Flowmasters on. Also put in the long seat belts that will work with the grandkids' car seats.

X2!  Haven't made a lot of progress on the restoration in the last couple of weeks.  Too busy with other stuff.  Shouldn't be this way!!!!  :crybaby2:

Hope to have more progress to show by the time we get together at Rob's.

Cheers!

It was cold here again and I have not did anything since my exhaust from Gardner. It actually runs and drives,but still doing detail work on body at this point.

Hey Dan, she's off the lift; that's progress!  And warm weather is on the way, so if warmth inspires you, it's going to be a good rest of the week!  Keep us posted!

Chuck,
I was going to warn you that the vent windows should go in before anything(if you have not done it yet). If I remember you have power windows so I might be wrong. These can be fun to do by yourself so have some help.Dan

If it would warm up I may get excited and get the cover off the 65. Need to get the heater core back in the car. Something about working in a cold garage does not make my day. Looks like next week is the week to start. Going to a swap meet on Sunday should also get the blood moving.

Lull!??? What is this lull of which you speak? (Re: Springtime Lull)

Dear Mark, Dan, Loren, Jim, Dan, Harle, John, Chuck, Dan, Glenn, and mid-60s Buick fans,


Is there anybody out there....

Yes, I'm still here and desperately trying to get to the point I can post something new on the Sportsman fuel injection thread.  It has been a very interesting learning experience.  What is the truth behind this engine start?

https://youtu.be/T4p-by_8qCw

Stay tuned!!  Hopefully, I'll find the time to answer this question soon!

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:

Hey Edouard,
I still didn't talk you into that Star Wars air cleaner? I went on a road trip and I am starting a petition to get it done.

Dan, I'm not close to ready for vent windows yet.  Need to get the doors stripped, prepped and painted first.  Probably not until later in May.

Vacation will get in the way!
