No car work this week, kind of hard to find something to do that is intresting. I'm not into that clean it with Q tips stuff.

Waiting a a few parts from Moss via Tony. Surely makes the days go slow.

Hay I have an idea, maybe Tony will give me one of his with parts to work on, he keeps breaking things.
 
I got a car here needs a little work doing... flights are cheap this time of year!
 
I'm waiting on my bonnet from the media blaster-body shop. I've put about 400 miles on the new motor without the bonnet. It sure does make it easier to show off the supercharger without the bonnet.
 
Heck, how do you think I feel, Jack - I'm waiting for an 85-cent gasket for my temp switch so I can close my radiator up & drive!
 
I'm twiddling me thumbs waiting for the UPS guy so I can get put back together. I might take a nap or something.
The BGT has been messed with, but I only have the mental real estate to be able to swear at one car at a time.
 
Baz, if you want the killer unblowable head gasket at an affordable price for an A series, my neighbor showed me how in england but it takes time. Get a sheet of copper from lowes or some other home place that is used foor chimney flashing and make your own gasket. That thin copper can be cut with scissors or paper hole punches but you have a lot of time in it. We spent a day making a gasket and got it running good and then took the car to one of his "mates" who gave us a passing MOT inspection for 3 cartons of marlboros and a half gallon of Jack Daniels.
 
Jack - FEDEX has your box...you should have it tomorrow!
 
Whoot, pics to follow.
