Middle of the Year - where are YOU at ??
1969 Polara 500 383-4bbl convertible: finally pulled the tranny pan to replace the leaking gasket. Didn’t like what I found. Lots of black sludge and fresh metal flakes. Looks like a rebuild is in order before driving it again.
1971 Duster 340: I have been going through boxes of household junk (crap) that has been blocking me from getting to the car which is in the garage. Still have lots more to clear out and throw away. At least I can get to the motor and tranny again which are out of the car.
My wife and I are on a cross country driving trip to bring home some items that her deceased aunt left for my wife. We have turned it into an extended vacation. Currently we are in Amarillo, TX. We will be going to Graceland to say “uh-huh-huh” to Elvis followed by two days in Nashville. Then on to spending 12 days in Bethesda MD (wife’s sister’s house) and around DC. Next, down to Virginia Beach (wife’s brother’s house) for 5 days. Follow that up with six days in Hobart, IN, at my daughter and son-in-laws house for the Fourth of July activities. Next will be 4 days in Michigan (friend’s house) and then the return trip home.
So no progress on the cars until the end of July at the earliest.
