I bought a new flex plate cover and painted it today ready for installation 

Then admired my new side glass with its green tint that I scored today ……

It will be replacing this nasty scratched stuff !!!!!

 

And I did two coats of wax and detailed the orange girl ready for next weekends snow run 😜

( i always do 2 coats as i am really good at missing spots!!!  )

First day of spring here and you may be able to see the plum tree in the back ground with all its blossom

Oh that's it. I showed her that. It's been nice knowing you, Frosty. You can run (can you actually run?) but you can't hide.

Once she has a good shave she's comin' to gitcha. Be very afraid.

Thinking ahead and trying to get as much done as possible.  Was going to switch sides with the GTO N BIrd in the garage so if a chance happened I can work on the GTO probs.  After clearing a path, installing/charging batt, moving all the cars from driveway, got nothing when trying to start GTO. Checked batt cables ect. then reached under dash and the connector is not on the back of the IGN switch.  Then it all came flooding back.  Fall of 22, car wouldn't shift on way home from last show of the year.  Got it home but after shutting off, would not start.  Wire in IGN connector broke.  Storm looming I was pushing it back in the garage by myself, when I tore a number of tendons in my left hip.  Used a rope and my lawn tractor out the back door of the garage to get it in the last LIL bit.  Had the family help me push both cars out later, switch em so I could finish assembly of the Birds new motor.  Back to square 1 and need to finish the transfer today.  Garage door is offset so you can't drive inside car out without moving the outside car out. 

[JUSTA6]

Got em switched, used my 4X4 4 wheeler to pull the GTO out.  Fixed the broken connector, It turns over with key.....still NO start.  Have power to coil nothin coming out.  Will have to pick one up tomorrow.  Using blankets under a tire, between car N 4 wheeler to push GTO back inside with my Honda.  Was suppose to be my Forest wheelchair for this fall's huntin season, but that's not gonna happen.

I'm in the middle of my last R&R before heading off to annoy Kiwi. GP is running very nicely at the moment so of course I need to fiddle with it. I always had a little surface rust on top of the master cylinder cap and booster but never did anything about it because the master will eventually be replaced with a dual and whilst that's happening I can chuck some paint on the booster BUT I was bored and they spoil the look of the engine bay more than you might think, so took the cap off, sanded & wirebrushed it down to almost bare metal and etch primed, chrome painted & clear coated it. Then left it in the sun to bake the paint on. I thought if I very carefully masked the booster's surroundings and associated hardware I could get away with a deft application from a rattle can. So after a light sand, I did just that and as carefully as I could painted the front of it. The only overspray I managed was a tiny dab on one of the bolts protruding from the master. I made a bowl of masking tape stuck to the rattle can top and sprayed some black paint into it then used a stick as a paintbrush to dab a little paint on the overspray. I also finally got around to removing that useless POS regulator from the firewall. Self regulating alternators are the duck's guts!

Can't wait to get to NZ and bore the tits off Kiwi.

Great job Fitzy.

We can not wait either. We want to see the Dunder and Plunder from Down Under 2.0 as much as you do. I can smell the plastic melting from when your bosses go shopping. The smell of burnt rubber and un-burned hydrocarbon, the sound of squealing tires and obnoxious exhaust. 

Wait - am I talking about Kiwi's place or rush hour traffic on a Friday night heading north on I-75 here in Michigan? Hmmmm....not sure. N-Never mind.

[Fitzy]

As far as melting plastic goes, she has her own credit card and if she chooses to drown in debt, she's paying it off! No, she's very restrained - a sensible woman with a credit card...how many of those got made?

And I'm sure Kiwi will want to show off his purple hotrod. Whatever - I'll be polite and tell him it scared me. Gotta keep him happy.

We turned up to his place in the Prius last time. I'm surprised the shotgun blasts missed us as we motored silently & cleanly up his driveway. I wonder what sort of econobox is in store for us this time? We're picking up a rental in the South Island and then another in the North. Might get 2 Prius.' That'll make for some exciting reading.

[Frosty]

Surely you luck isn’t that bad two times in a row? No one wants a Prius!

Besides I assume Kiwi was aiming his shotgun at the motor, not the occupants…or so he says!

[Fitzy]

If I survive the drive up his driveway this time, it'll just mean he's a crap shot as opposed to a crack shot. Crackpot? Defo.

[64 kiwi boni]

I have read your posts fitzy. And your Prius  doesn’t worry  me at all 

justA dont leave that heap of sh-t  at my place ! 

[Fitzy]

I doubt there's room at your joint for yet ANOTHER heap of shit! I reckon if I rocked up in some rusty dinosaur with 3 wheels and smoke belching out of it, it'd be the Boss with the shotty.

[Frosty]

It’s not called another piece of shit, it’s called “yard art”! Bullet holes are optional!
