I'm seriously glad to read this post!! Sorry I've been busy cruising the countryside in GWEN'S '33.... we're now in Austin Texas (after DRIVING it from San Francisco to here) for the Lonestar Round Up.....

Glad you are happy with the way it's all turning out. Cars can be such a hassle -- but are so worth it when they're dialed in and you're cruising up PCH or banging the lines at some track somewhere!!


XOXO

I've put about 1500 miles on it now, one track day and two AutoXs. Handles fantastic, lots o' power and real fun. I also got out to Chuckwalla for an instruction day. What a great freakin' track! 17 technical turns and it took me all morning just to learn the line.

Back to the car...I had blown a rear seal and cooked vent line so had to get that fixed. Mustang Ron lead me to a seal retainer plate and threw that on. Breathing looks good so hopefully that's cured. All the oil leaks are good save one (knock on wood), so I need to change out my oil thremo. Real weird, it's inconsistent - you can actually press on the lines or the housing and it'll start to leak. Anyway that's one extra I do not have on the shelf so I'm gonna switch out the existing Derale for a beefier Improved Racing unit.

Fingers crossed that does it.

Oh, did I mention she's real pretty?
