Maybe I bought a FORD?

I believe I purchased a 1969 TR6 FORD by mistake.
Because my car is so often Found On Road Dead.

Last break down was at the end of my 30 foot driveway.
I'm hoping the new fuel system might get me to the corner
stop sign, before the breakdown.

I get a really red face when the neighbors see me working on
the car for months on end and then it dies in the drive on
my first test run attempt and they have to come over to help push it back into the Crypt.

Ah, life with Crypty /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/nopity.gif

ROTFLMAO... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif Fix It Again Tinster.... /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif
 
Big box of Moss Motors parts arrived on Thursday,
fuel pump from DavidK arrived and now on my way
over the Western Auto to purchase more parts.

I can't believe it was been almost two months on
jack stands as a result of the complete collapse
and failure of DPO Pedro's fuel delivery system
from gas tank to carbs. Everything replaced and
still there are serious problems.

I think Fix it again Tinster happens more than
Found On Road Dead. I average 1/2 hour drive time
for every two months being fixed again on jacks time.
My 1/2 drive time averages $2K in cash flow out as
well.

A tough ratio to deal with.
