Glen has agreed to do a tech presentation on his EFI project.

Between seeing Glen's work and taking a gander at Larry Miller's BUGZUKI we should all get a primer in what can be done to "soup-up" an LBC!

Yep you heard right Bugzuki is going to be there.
 
still keeping my fingers crossed that I can be done with my roto-spridget in time to make the trip.

Going in for paint next week! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif - 6 months to go
 
So, Jack, when you come up I suppose I'll have to have the '63 Midget's new clutch finished, eh?
 
My word Tony, I saw the parts in the cockpit. Do it today.
 
That may very well be, he is waiting for the right guy.
 
....waiting....waiting.....
 
OKAY ALREADY.........

STEP 1: Removed hood, battery, air cleaners in preparation for pulling engine/trans:

...& while I'm at it, I got rid of that gosh awful luggage rack & the radio antenna that went nowhere...bodywork & new paint before 50th at the Lake will cover the holes:

...&, yes, I know she's dusty! She's been sitting in one place since I wore her clutch completely out!

So, there!
 
Done yet? hehehe....You guys are lucky....I had to stop to pull an RB 18V engine/trans & strip it down to a short block so a customer can pick it up this week....that took all afternoon after my last drive & doing the little bit of work on the '63 Midget!
 
I've decided to take the advice of my Doc and not do it.
4000 miles round trip would likely cause too many complications with my circulatory issues.

I'll have to be satisfied with the pictures and the stories here.
