I finished the electrical, charged the battery, connected the fuel line, and put gas in the gas tank. The next thing I did was look for the key and turned over the engine and got it started. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

Started to install a front sway bar and then found some rust. I then treated the rust (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) , degreased my trans and cleaned out my gas tank all at the same time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

I get side tracked easily, so I ended up only installing one sway bar mount! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

While trying to get my 72. 1.7. To start, I pulled the points, bent them into shape, cleaned and set them. This didn't make it start but it did fix the tach which was going crazy when I drove it. Fixed the starting with a new fuse under the hood.

Built intake scoops for my rocker panels to feed the rear brakes.
Built side intake scoops for my rear quarters to feed the beast with a little forced air induction.
Made an absolute mess of my garage with fiberglass debris, wax paper and discarded mold materials.
Got side panel marked for potential placement of air scoop.
Realized that I have a Vespa in my garage.
Realized that both of my bikes haven't been ridden in months.
Watched some Dakar Rally.

tonight, sand scoops, cut fenders and rockers.

Repaired the horn, put on better sail panel trim pieces, boxed up a bunch of parts for Bill, thought about all the other shit I should be doing, said "the hell with it" and took it out to run the "mountain". I think this was it for winter, since the morons in town started putting salt down for a 1/2 inch snowfall last week!

Man, this car loves the cold weather, but salt is a killer, so into the barn he goes, covered with plastic, tank with almost full fuel and stabilizer and 35 psi in the tires. Sigh...see you in April.

Adjusted the valve using the Capn' method. Replaced a few connecters in the wiring harness. Chased down a couple of vacume leaks. Car is running much smoother now.
