the last item for my AH tool roll. A plug wrench.

Kind of closes out that project. Now what?

All done with the resto. Kinda an empty feeling.

What to do: ROAD TRIP, Jack! Take her on a nice overnite trip somewhere, with the wee woman.

Drive . . . :yesnod:

Start looking for obscure period aftermarket parts.

You need to plan an extended road trip to Utah to help me finish up the Tunebug. Heck, you could probably tour the country for free that way. :smile:

Just after you pass Drew's just stop by Seattle and take away this '65 shell that I have sitting here- I expect to see it all finished by Wisconsin!!

Do you have the Dunlop tire valve tool? I haven't had much luck finding one that I could afford.

What'snext ?!?!?!?!?


Why refunding me the $1 I lost in the Laird Technologies air compressor at the gas station this morning.



I saw the label on the top, thought of you and instantly said, "Man, I spend way too much time at BCF.


Don't feel bad, Basil and Doc owe me a glove box for Kellys Expedition they tore out last night 'cause Basil needed more leg room.

That's a first for Basil but the second time I was hanging out at Doc's in a dream.

Jack, can you post a pic of what this looks like? So what is total inventory of what you have for your tool roll?

Ya Jack,
Don't just SAY you have them all. Let's see a picture!
I'm collecting too, must not have anything worthwhile to do. I'm not saying that about you, old mighty one!
I would like to see your tyre tool (Lucas) and your screwdriver-ignition tool (looks like the the tappet-spark plug gauge, but isn't).

Here are the part #s
Screwdriver and gauge-ignition 3H2648
Spanner-tyre valve 2H1683
Cheers,

Scott in CA

Will try to remember to take a pic tomorrow, yep have the screwdriver-ign tool. looks like it would work just fine. The feeler guages are ok as well. Screwdriver kind of intresting as is the grease gun.

Have Tool bag, jack, jack wrench, lug wrench, grease gun, feeler guages, dizzy tool, screw driver, and sparkplug wrench with handle.

No tire tools as I do not have wire wheels and no tire pump as I don't think anyone was ever man enough to use it on a tire since the little things from the 20s and 30s. Plug wrench should be here next tue I think.

Never heard of a Dunlop valve stem tool, have a modern one in tool box but use on bikes. Can not beleive that folks even in my life time did their own tires. Heck I remember Dad in the early 40s haveing tires done at the service station.

Tool kit, not mine. The engine lift bits are not part of the tool kit, all are optional items but the jack, jack wrench and lug wrench.
