| Got boots or the shift tube, so now the birdies will say clean. There is one boot on each end of the shift tube. I will have heat. Motor's in! This motor had an old school dual exhaust on Hugo, but it won't fit under Velvet's bumper. So, we will use the stinger for now, I am out of money.... Still need to hook up the 96 pass oil cooler, put the longer bolts into the spring plates when they come in, rejet the carbs, odds and ends. Hoping she'll be rolling this weekend. | |

| I have all 5 of her hubcaps. But when Les Schwab washed and powder coated the rims, several of the rusty clips came off. So now we have to replace some clips on each rim to put the caps back on.... It's on the list. | |

That is all am going to say. Similar to blowing through a heater cable tube? | |
