I'm gonna finish up a bluestone walkway in front of my house, wrench on the 914, then I've got filets, Salmon steaks, and Asparagus hitting the grill. Of course the wife doesn't know about the wrenching yet. She's gonna be off with the kids then (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) and to wrap up the evening a few of my new favorite recipe in front of a fire:
1 small bag of frozen peaches 4oz. tequila 2oz. triple sec 1 bad ass blender 1 shot peachtree Viola - instant frozen peach margarita's, I float the peachtree on top, it hides the tequila from the wife (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) Gee Lisa if you hop a flight quickly the blender will just be getting fired up as you it the ground in Boston (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) |

My Camp 914 driving light went out (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
I think I must have lost the ground, so I am off to fix that. |

I'd like to get Babydoll's gas tank and front fuel lines connected, if I can figure out how to get the 3/8" feed pipe connected to the 5/16" fuel pump nipple. And I'm probably also gonna repack a CV joint on my tail dragger, and connect up all the electrical, cables, etc. that I disconnected when I did a partial engine drop. It won't hit the road today regardless, though, since Babydoll is blocking it in. Perhaps if it gets hot this afternoon, I'll take the big Benz out for ice cream.

Trimming shrubs... Having one of these (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer.gif) between each shrub...
Also looking at the right front brakes on the 914. Seems to be pulling to the right under braking. Found the outside pad was completely worn out, inside pad about 1/2 worn. Hmmm. Both pistons push back with about the same force, Both come back out about the same distance when the brake pedal is depressed. Sticking piston on the outside?? What to do with it?? Spoke |

Did the tank pull on the 911 yesterday....finally have a functioning gas gauge again....installed the engine on the Speedster (Frank Jr), ran out of time and had to pick up kids before I got it started...... Today is lawn mowing, putting summer toys away, and general mayhem around the house......doing some logos for the upcoming German Auto Fest.... |

Hell, yeah! Install Pistons, Cylinders and Heads on the 2.4 short block. Fiddle with fabbing a shroud for the oil cooler.

Clean the bare tub in preparation for POR 15. Been working on the cockpit all morning. Running out of stripper, though. Dunno if I can find some today.
Oh well, I may have to quit early and have a few ales. Weather is decent here, kinda kool, may nudge 70 F, but bright sunshine. Michel |
