I bought another '73 2.0 optioned car. It has a really solid tub and is complete. It does run, all I need to do to drive it is install a new master cylinder. Next week the tank gets pulled, MC goes in, five lug gets installed and the madness starts all over again. I really don't need two cars, but sadly, I'm an addict.

I fiddled with hooking up the fog lights yesterday, no luck, wiring seems to be correct. I got in the car today, and it wouldn't start. I push started it down the hill and it started right up, but now no tach, gas gauge, and directionals. That's random.

I un-hooked the fogs and left them the way they were before. I'm about ready to sell EVERYTHING and just get out of this hobby altogether. I'm so frustrated, my fucking crooked mechanic STILL hasn't come clean with my money and engine.

Oh, and these Scheels showed up today…..
