Nah, we still deal with him at the shop, and he has the Cap'n's 65 911 in there for de-rusting around the windows. He's a nice enough guy (when he's sober), but was just trying hard to take advantage while he had the chance. I won't personally deal with him any more than I have to. It's gonna take a while just to find & fix all the things he's screwed up, but it's really nice to drive the car again. We've done a lot of stuff to it over the years, so it really holds the road, and is a lot of fun to drive. I'm just glad that part of the soap opera is over. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I'll take some pics tomorrow. I can't believe how well it handles compared to the black pos. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)


BTW bondo, I have the carb rebuild kits. I should get together with you sometime in the near future.



Yup yup! I'm out of town this weekend and have a house guest the next, but after that I should have time to sit down and have some quality time with your webers.

Any luck finding that early plug housing, or will I have to adapt a later one? I'm almost willing to skip the connector entirely, but I really hate to be a DAPO. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
