At Rothsport I'm putting a new suspension on a vintage 69 race car. Removing the battery boxes for
dual oil coolers. New oil lines. Fun.

At our place is was primarily a shop day. Did put a couple hours in on Mark's heat exchangers.

After the work on Mark's car I set about going thru all my totes and extracting all the fresh and heater fan parts. Ending up with 3 good fresh fans and 3 good heater fans. 2 early. 1 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) late.
But only one good/complete fresh air box. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Then I climbed up into the yellow parts car on stilts and extracted the fresh air blower, controls and vents.

Super In Law is back to work. He cut open the workbench to allow us to slip the small parts storage tool box under the bench.

I plan to go thru all the parts totes and extract all the hardware and small bits.

Next he's fabricating the pivot mount for the 55" TV/Computer monitor.
After that he's all Jacked about building an engine test stand. It will be T4 only.

After my week at Rothsport I decided it's time to get the BE parts washer up running.
It was always going to be set up for temporary use, roll it to the door way to let the steam out. Nope, we'll hard wire it in and vent it out the wall.

Here's my current project. Seems like I carry my Barer of Bad News nickname with me. Found a couple rust issues that needed to be dealt with. Then on to a complete combination Elephant Racing / JWE suspension swap. I mean complete, nothing left but the holes in the car.
Oh yeah, complete oil cooler / oil line change. Had a medium Setrab in the right fender. It's getting a running mate in the left fender.

Took some Bilstein struts out our vast inventory of parts and ran them thru the BE parts washer to bring them back to green. Went in grimy black, came out 80% green.
Hand washed them in the regular Safety-Kleen parts washer to get the last 20% of grime off. Then ran them thru the BE parts washer again to get the mineral spirits off.
Then 3 coats of John Deere green. Look just like new.

When I feel like I can take a break I'll get my parts stash moved to the parts tool box.
Digging thru boxes every time isn't working for me .....................

Super In Law update :

Took a newfangled stress test on Tuesday. No info yet.
He's taking a medication to keep his pulse/heart from slowing down. Which will keep it from going crazy to try and catch up. Which causes the dizziness.

After Super In Law finishes the big screen install he'll go on to documenting the differences in the front panels and its corner braces from 70 - 75.

Proud Papa moment. I have to share. Here is the view out of my middle son's office window in Manhattan. Just graduated JD at U of O.
He'll never see a court room. Contracts, tax law, venture capital & start ups is his passion.
Was interviewed and hired by the CEO. MY HERO.



Got an email at 2:30 this am. My HERO passed the New York bar exam.
End of a long journey. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
