BUT, before that happens, I’m hoping…just maybe…to get my goddamn car back from paint.

Another visit. Final primer is done, just needs one last block and then color goes down. Eventually. 
 

 

At some point I’ll die and my bones will turn to dust and blow away and be reabsorbed by the lakes and trees and the lakes will dry up and the trees will die and erosion will knock down the Rocky Mountains and an inland sea will envelop what was once called Colorado and unknowable species will roam rampant through humanless vistas and the Earth’s orbit will destabilize and it will spiral closer and closer to the sun and eventually enter the corona and be incinerated and the sun will bloat and grow red and slowly dim before collapsing completely inward upon itself and send our tiny solar system, at long last, into permanent merciful darkness.

Totally. I remain hopeful it’ll be sooner…because I’m an idiot. 
 

Thanks for the wheel compliment!  Maxilites in 15x6. They fit perfectly in the fenders and don’t rub even though I ride it low. And they fit easily over the Wilwood BBK front and rear.  I like the Maxilites over the other Alpina tributes because they have a correct offset while still maintaining a lip. Best of both worlds.

So it's taking longer than you expected?

Refurbished tii air box.  I assumed they stayed clean and nice forever.  Not.

Bad luck today.  We left for a planned 60 mile drive.  About 16 miles in I thought the car was a little sluggish.  18 miles in it would die at stop signs.  I could get it started, fuss with the gas, get to the next stop only for it to die again.  When I pulled over, the coil was very hot, and the condenser was even hotter.  Plenty of fuel, does not seem like a fuel delivery issue.  I assume ignition.  Kind of sudden as it has been running well, no troubles as we've been driving it every few days.  Will be testing the dizzy, condenser and coil on my friends really cool sun machine this week.  A 123 and coil will be here Tuesday as a backup plan.  Must get this in order before the trip to Michigan!

Even broken down, that is a beautiful 02!! Have fun with the diagnosing and repairs!!

Where/how did you source your new steering box? 

 

And let me know when you are throwing those 40 DCOEs into your neighbors pool so that I can fish them out. 😁

Oh, no!  You don't want to get wet.  I'll go in for them!
