Ted/Colin Thanks :)

I had to pack up the black one and send it north to make room as you know Colin that my sons 93 Civic got kinda messed up, his car should be back from the body shop in about a week, then I can make the rest of the repairs my self. The Gremlin only received $110.00 in damages, that was a break.
I have a few other things left to do to the black one such as the exhaust from the EB3 is slightly off from the EB2 motor, the manifold does not quite line up with the flange on the end of the pipe. I have to figure out something for the shift linkage cable to secure it as it is longer than the orig. one. I need to find a new torq rod bushing and drill out the broken cotter pin and broken drill bit stuck in the control arm.

Colin I sent you my email address.

Hey Randy,

By the way, I tried to email you last night and my computer bounced back the message, saying your email address is no longer valid, do you have a new one or was it just a glitch??

Today I took a needed holiday to go and get my car from my in-laws garage out of town. :)
First thing fix the flat on the Tupper Van (opps, sorry Colin "Dusty) Wait an extremely long time to get the trailer and still no Tim Horton’s in sight.
1
My wife noticed that I was starting to fade out, so we stopped at the Cowboy steaks place, no Tim Horton’s here but their coffee was better than drinking with the horses.
2
Prince is happy too
3
We made it, though I think dusty has seen better days, anyone needs a big white plastic recycling bin?
And look who is ready to go home

I hope you like the transformation of my black 78 to the 76-77 look, this is the one that got treated to the 3speed auto upgrade. Still no veeeroooom yet as I have to fix the wiring on the second gen shifter. It also had the Smokey EB3 taken out for a smokeless EB2 with a recycled Weber carb that was on the gold one.

Time to take the baby home, Gee I wish I had my old 76 with the sun roof and a paint ball gun right now.

Have you ever played catch with marsh mellows, its an real head scratcher.
This is what we did in our teens long before heavy drugs; cell phones and laptops came along. The blue Honda Civic with the sunroof takes the lead on the country road with girl friend standing on the seat loaded with a big bag of white puffs. The idea is to see if the passenger of the following cars can catch their prize. No dough that the passenger of the 76 Chev Malibu could not catch a cold like that on a rainy day. So the 69 Chevelle moves in to over take the Malibu on the out side while passing on a hill. He swoops in font of his Chev cousin without a worry and fetches his prize.
Oh the bit about him passing on the hill, well he really trusts me, you see since I am the lead car I radio back alls clear via "CB".
Now if it were the Chev Malibu it MIGHT be clear all the time as he blew up my 76 hondamatic transmission and muffler when he dropped it into low gear while on the highway.
Just kidding about the MIGHT.
