Swap meet sounds good,Dave..I would love to lay my hands on a few old 4speeds to throw in the corner.. I have a fetish for cars with three pedals again.. Try to mow the lawns tomorrow...could be the last time for a few months,,depending on the weather down here.. always something to do,,just got to figure out where to start..

Up early,aren't you,Dave?? 4.05AM,in your neck of the woods??

Saturday (if the weather co-operates) we've been doing some work to the shop exterior. So I'll continue with that.

Sunday I have to run up to New Hampshire with the dash to have the woodgraining re-done. The original shop just can't do it without spots and blemishes so I found one that will fix the mess. Then maybe I can get the car back together and finish the intake work.

I am driving into the big smoke of Auckland City tomorrow, actually out west Auckland to pick up some Hot Rod Magazines that another rodder purchased over our Trade me site, like your EBay,. Once I get them home I will go through them and then with the large box of old magazines I have already pickup for Clive, I will cruize down to his place to deliever to his place down in the centre of the Island. Looking forward to just getting out and away for a couple of hours from the full time care of Mum.

Yeah, after another week of cool, damp weather it's getting better today into the weekend. Nothing big planned, Grandma is up north with the twins & little Avery giving daughter and SIL a week away from parenting so Bones & I are bachelor room mates. Steering column, u-joints, shaft & a support should be on the BBT coming from Summit later today, so may play with getting the column in the roadster. Didn't get the drop yet as I have to do some fab work to extend the support steel back to the dash, too. May work on that today, but also have a few hours of mowing that's needing to be done.

Chris and I are going to a antique flea market up in the thumb Sat.. I have that 66 Mustang in the shop and it really dose need work (10 years since run). So my weekend is full up. Are power steering and power brakes available for this Mustang???

Yes, Rock Auto lists both a power booster and power steering components for the '66 Mustang.

Many repo parts vendors for Mustangs plus evilbay. I would also change to a dual master cylinder if you haven't done so already. I'm going to change mine to a 67 or 68.

We'll be spending the weekend out at the ballpark again; Granddaughter Bella's team, The Dirtbags, (10 - 11 year olds) fast pitch softball, has done quite well this early season, and last weekend they played four games in a tournament, and started playoffs on Wednesday, continuing Saturday and Sunday, at least four more games, two each day.

Oh to have a life... What is that like? This weekend I need to Modify a customers trailer and build 3 Model A Seat Frames. All this in a steel Quonset Hut and 90 degree weather. What the heck ever happened to the "April showers brings May flower" thing? Hot and dry here in So Cal!
Enjoy your weekend everyone and be safe!

Did you mean Quonset Hut?

Did a lot of spring cleanup around the yard, cut up downed tree, picked up pasture got lawn picked up and mowed ( kids were involved in all of this by the way ) beautiful day for sure. I still had time to hook up my new Speedhut GPS speedometer and try it out. It works great by the way. Were is the swap meet at in Sioux Falls? I need some inner fender wells for my 53. Mine are chopped up beyond repair.

thanks, I hope I can make it there but not sure yet.

I didn't do anything automotive, unless you consider changing oil in the work truck auto related. I did have a hoot taking these at the local park though.
