Well, I got pretty close to getting old leaky back among the living this weekend. intake is back on, dist. is in. Cleaned and painted a couple brackets. Purchased a new water pump at Advanced Auto (grrrrr..... I don't like that place) spread out some paper in the driveway and painted it.
It looked so pretty wearing it's new "chevy orange" hue. It was sunny and hot and it was dry in no time. Went to install it... It was for a big block!!
So a very un-happy Doug drives all the way back to Advanced with a very big scowl on his face and asks for the manager.
Luckily, he SOMEHOW noticed that I was not a happy camper and gave me the corect part without actually noticing that the other one was painted.
That, however, ended my day as I promised my son that we would go visit the grand parents and go swimming.
We went to the super chevy show yeasterday. It was again very hot. Brian thought the Nitro Coupes were the cooles thing ever but was not too hip on the jet dragsters.
He really liked the little astro van wheelie car. That guy is pretty talented, 1/4 mile wheel stand and going through the traps at 9.xx
I would have liked to have gotten the motor back together but we had fun just the same.
(and at least 1 pit stop for go juice ....BOTH ways 
...)
