Changed the oil on the 76 Saturday.

Spent most of the day Sunday inspecting this, 1970 1 owner 914-6 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) I'm selling on behalf of the original owner.
Wow (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ... how much?

I stuck a paperclip in the center hole of the left rear ATS wheel on the 'BB' and had my wife follow me with a video camera aimed at it, so I can show the judge that the parking enforcement officer (who issued me a ticket for the car 'supposedly' being parked on the street in excess of 72 hours) is full of shit.

The paperclip just rolls around in the spinning wheel - for miles and miles ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

I did this yesterday, because today, they tore out the curbs and started trenching for new curbs and gutters. Since my court date is this Thursday, wanted to show the paperclip issue under the same exact conditions in front of my house as the day the ticket was issued (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

Finished my spark plug hole relocation for the 2.0 heads.

next a little sanding, then a trip through the blaster for the crusty spots and they will be ready for paint and install.

Drove the kids to school. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) First my 8 year old son and them my 5 year old daughter. Fortunately we live less than two miles from the school so two separate trips isn't a problem and I get twice the seat time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

2 years on and off the jack stands and never driven her more than 2 miles from home. Maybe soon. Applying for insurance today. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)

Welded on some McMark recommended wire mesh (Mcmaster-carr). Wow, what a pita. As info the wire mesh is not welded. Its just weaved like a straw basket so spent some time hitting every joint (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Need to touch up with my dremel and paint.

I copied it from McMark and Speed metal army (green car).

Wow- if you need to vent the fenders that sure looks like a nice way to do it while maintaining the structural integrity of the panel.

Picked the kids up at school (early dismissal day) and drove over to the beach for pizza lunch and Marianne's ice cream. Took the back roads home at the kids request.

Wow that must have been a nice drive. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
Six is looking good!! You were within a couple blocks of my Dads house in the picture, he's a couple of blocks up from the beach on the river side.

Sounds like a great day (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

Thanks Jeff. I had to get the car out as I have been working so much I needed the therapy of driving. Plus top off, Sirius radio on radio margaritaville and kids singing Jimmy Buffet tunes while driving the twisties.....it doesn't get much better than that for me.

Not too small but I can tell that the car is getting tighter as they are both growing like weeds. 11 and 9 years old.
