Yesterday afternoon I recieved a call from my buddy Jasfmith (James, the Swiss six guy).
We spent about 20 minutes bantering bach & forth. Then, he hit me in the gut!

Apparently, I spend too much time on perfection (gas tank) and not enough time on getting the 14 on the road. Probably so.

I was told, in no uncertain terms, that I need to set hard & fast goal and timelines for getting things completed. Basically, I was told to sh_t or get off the pot!

Think that James may have a point.

Here's what I need to do to get Fritz running again:
1. Tank - nearly ready for insertion. One week to meet my specs.
2. FI - all lines , injectors, fuel pump (probably), rails replaced. ?, maybe 2 additional weeks.
3. Startup & test - who knows? After living in SE PA for 15 years I've yet to find a local to trust with the engine mechanical, as well as brakes & suspension (I welcome referrals here!), so my plan is to ship it to Stoddard for this work after it fires up. They can have it for as long as needed to make it roadworthy. Needs no restoration, just a pro hand on the mechanicals. Will consider all other offers (Scotty?).

This car MUST be roadworthy by Spring of 2011, or earlier. I plan on entering it in the Vermont Parade if I still live in the area.

Those are my goals James. Now shut up!
