Mark Whitesell called me from 914 Rubber this morning to inform me that my newly upholstered early tan door panels are finished and ready to ship (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I received the tan seat & backpad upholstery a couple weeks ago, so Ill have everything to convert from black to tan soon. He's supposed to send me some pix of the fabric to convert center gauge consoles they;re working on too. I'm thinking about installing a center console in 'HOWARD', even though it wasn't original equipment ... might as well make it tan too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Drove the '73 to warm up and drain oil- gonna need a R&R of the engine. Has developed a big oil leak I've traced to the oil cooler. Will do a couple other things while I have it out.

I'd like to get one of those 'car condos', but it'd be a 90 mile trip from the mountains down to the PHX metropolis (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) - Maybe they'll build one up at the 5,000 ft. elevation in the near future? ... if not, guess I'll have to think about having a single 'car condo' unit built at my place (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)


Picked up my new 1911 long block from European Motor Works yesterday (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif) ... but it's gonna be a while before I can fully dress it out and get it in the car ... too many other irons in the fire right now ...

Build your own. They sold out FAST here in the valley. There are a lot of car guys in them-thar hills. I'm betting it would be a profitable project.

Car condo is a great idea- couldn't build a shop at my house (thanks to HOA) and it is a great social outlet as well. What's not to like about 50 some gearheads in the same area?? Even though I'm a Porsche and foreign car guy it is fun to see a lot of other interesting cars and projects, like a chopped '54 Ford wagon and 500+ cubic inch blown Ford pickup with wheelie bars!!
And TWO real '73 Carrera RS's across from one another???
We are sorta doing our social distancing...
