Well, if Sherryl gets the green light from her doctor on Friday, she'll be leaving for London, England on Sat. with her sister and mom......

so, that leaves me free to goof around for an entire week (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif)

Hopefully I can avoid sitting in front of the TV too much and actually get my lazy butt out to the garage and be productive.....

I need to pull a bunch of parts from the roller, and clean up the garage. The back half has a layer of black powder from powdercoating, and there are tools everywhere.

If I can I also want to do my oil pan modification for the Subaru engine. I have all of next week off, so I should have some time to get stuff done.

I finished stripping the underside of the drivers side on my teener this last Sunday, this coming week, I'll be primering that area, and spraying it with the Body Schutz.

Mike,
The surface grinder project is progressing but not done so I haven't had time to work on your knife yet. I did, however, find something cool to play with that I'm sending you in the mail today. Watch for a 6x9 padded yellow mailer.

I get to take the interior out of "das boat" to dry out the 2 inches of water sitting in it. I made the mistake of leaving the car out in the rain and it filled up.

At least I can look at the seat mounting up close and figure out how to lower the seats.

3 maybe 4 days of no work. Not sure about Friday. Was planning on devoting at least a couple of days trying to sort out the car but my son calls me last night and wants me to help him replace his clutch and throw-out bearing. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)

Any words of wisdom on doing a clutch job on a '01 Mustang GT???

Junior's been doing burnouts and laying some 2nd gear scratch, eh? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Good luck, just get the SOB high enough in the air and maybe drop the rear trans crossmember so you can get to the upper bellhousing bolts. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Next Tues-Thursday are full-on house and 914 project days....touch-up painting to seal from rain, slueth and fix drainage problems, and general clean-up FOR BOTH HOUSE AND CAR (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

More specific for my 914 are to grind away drivers floorpan rust to find good metal for welding new pan, hook-up heater blower fan and new tubing, fix headlights that stopped working after this last rain (the new H4s were awesome, then it all went dark one day (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) ), install Engman trunk release, hopefully CAMP914 trunk shocks (SANTA?), fix drivers door handle, fix wiggling throttle pedal, install drivers door pocket, new power door lock kit, alarm (maybe), and Alpine CD player from my previous car.

I'd really appreciate getting 0.02 cents about my car from someone besides the mechanic and might be PMing people in my East Bay CA area- drive over, bring beer and wrenches, see what happens!
