Glad to see you came down to thaw out Bob. It isn't exactly hot here right now but compared to what some of the rest of the country is getting is sure is nice.


I've started making a little more progress on the 27. I have 10 days vacation I am using up before the end of the year so I'll be off all this next week. Should be able to get a lot of little things done and maybe get close to being able to fire the engine for the first time.

In the past couple of days I got my Hurst shifter reinstalled and adjusted and put the driveshaft back in. Not major stuff, but the shifter took a while because I tore down the car 10 years ago and I had to find some of the pieces and paint them. But now it shifts nice even when I slam the gears.

The next things I need are an alternator, mechanical fuel pump (this engine has the eccentric so I can run one) a distributor, and some plug wires. Time to put in an order with Summit and get those things moving. Here are some pictures of what I got installed in this last go round.
