Hopefully I converted a young kid from video games to wanting to play with cars

If your interested... riding shotgun could be possible in early August. That would be fun... I'll find out more this week about the event

If I can make it up there that would be good entertainment!

While prepping the car for yesterday for today's trip to Portland I noticed a loose power steering bracket bolt. The car still has modified OEM brackets because the car had 461 fuelie heads with no accessory accommodation. When resetting tension and tightening things up I noticed how much flex was in the brackets and jimmy-rigged a quick "Springtuckey" fix to the system.





Negative style points but the flex is gone and the pulleys line up well.

Looking forward to meeting up with Dale at the Beaches Cruise In this afternoon.

Finally made it to the Beaches Cruise at PIR after being stuck for nearly an hour in traffic only 8 miles from the track! High 80* temps and no AC was making me a little cranky!














Pretty good event even though car count was a little low due to the holiday week. I'd guess 500-600 cars 100+ bikes, and the drag racers.

The trip back on I-5 was going well even though traffic was heavy there were timely gaps allowing me capitalize on the T56 until just south of Albany where some IDIOT flipped oversized 5th wheel house on wheels and crew cab pickup.....another 20+ minutes of stop and go so people could rubber-neck the scene. the remaining 30 miles to home after that when a little faster.

The car once again performed flawless. Highest temp was 202*. I dropped the primary mains from 70 to 68 which was an improvement. I also need to add clutch pedal pivot bushings to the vehicle inspection list as I expect my left leg to start cramping at so point today.
