I'm going fishing! Thanks Ken. I think I need a break from cars for a while, but maybe after the new year I am either going to start fooling around with the 46 or the 29 rpu. I'm really leaning toward the rpu because I want to build that one on the somewhat rough side........brush painted body, etc. Just make it like something I would have been able to build in high school.

Funny story. Last night as Dan and I were motoring around in 49 degree temperatures I made a U turn and the engine died. We had to push it about a half block to a parking lot. We got out and were trying to figure out what happened and Dan said "You didn't turn off your kill switch, did you?" ( I hid a toggle switch under the dash as an anti theft device, to kill the ignition signal) We checked and yep, my foot had hit it as I left up on the clutch. Flipped it on and the car fired right back up. I hit it inadvertently a couple more times during our ride, so today a butt connector will replace that switch. Dan and I learned how out of shape we both are during that pushing session.
