One heckuva black eye in the making! Been icing it for two hours now. Still hurts like all heck. O well................I should be easy to spot this weekend.
I took out the rear trailing arm bolt, and the arm stayed in kinda snug. Then, while underneath it, I loosened the front bolt. One wrench turn and it swung down and cleaned my clock. I had almost no sleep last night, so I decided to work on the car at 6 AM since I was up. Bad move!!!
Hey Dan. Sorry about your bump. Now, it looks as though I'm going to hook up with Alan Wander (69GS400s) up on I-80 and come into Salem that way. So I hope you won't be too disappointed in me not stopping in at your crib on the way into Salem. Thanks for the offer though, it was really nice of you. c-ya at the drags!
No Probem Jeff. You got my number if youns have trouble. I probably won't go to the strip till Thursday.
Dan forgot to ask what did you do with the control arms that came off of your car I might be interested in having a set made
While under may car making the new starter heat shield fit under the starter with the headers, I thought I had coaught a bolt on the starter. I saw it swing a little, and then it dropped...no place to run! I was flat on my back. The starter bouncing off my face didn't hurt as much as the back of my head, which I smacked against the concrete when I reflexively tried to pull my head back. Don't feel so dumb, Dan. But a word of advice: if this ever happens again, make up a good story, like, "I got mugged but I beat the guy up and took HIS wallet".
