Finally back to it

Re: 1 June 07 - Finally back to it

Good, there's progress. The olive oil sounds intriguing, I shall have to check the thread out.

Yes, progress. Maybe not much, but every little bit gets me closer to the end. What motivated me to "get back to it" was a friend who has a Healey that is completely restored. We were at a British car gathering here and I was admiring his Healey and lamenting the lack of progress I've made on my Jag and he simply said "just commit to doing something every day, even if its something small, and it will come together faster than you can imagine." So that's what I'm doing. Every day (except when I'm out of town of course) I am going to try to do something on the Jag. I will chronicle my progress in this thread as I go.

PS: The olive oil trick worked amazingly well!

Well, you are just humming along. Agatha or Onslow will be proud to cruise with you, so just keep humming....

Way to go, leader!

If I keep plugging away, there is a "chance" I could have her/him/it back on the road by next spring (hey, it's a goal!). Well, back to the garage to finish the restoration of my heater box.
