post #5947

waiting on the mail to bring me some gauges and crush washers

I'm sure it won't come anymore today, so I decided to go fishing
I didn't even see that post when I first scrolled through. I saw the blown tire and then suddenly there's a fish.

I got my new seats installed tonight.
Soooo much more to do!
But I'm retired and live alone, so nothing stopping me !

First car show. Just a local show, meet and greet. My first ever. The 1950 Chevy is mine also. My son drove it there. I am not much of a socializer but talking about cars was a great time.

waiting on U_P_ to get off of their Ss so I can redo the fuel return (I'm putting a crush washer in just to be sure) and installing some new gauges
IF it all ever gets delivered
Good luck on that. I have been waiting on some house stuff that was shipped 3 weeks ago. It sat in Columbus for two weeks until I rode them about it. Just delivered today. Two of the 5 packages damaged and one lost. How the heck you lose a 10ft long package I do not know

yeah, it got delivered today, but then i broke the nut that holds it on (see pics above your post)
of course you cant find that nut anywhere...so now im stuck waiting on trying to get a replacement nut

better dust off that fishing rod again
 
Installed an electric oil pressure gauge. I guess it's reading about 65psi at idle. Kinda hard to pinpoint exactly but better that it was!

That sucks
 
Working on reducing weight replacing various things with aluminum pieces on my A(100) body :lol: Finished fabricating mounting brackets for a Jaz drag race seat and an aluminum belly pan/air scoop to replace the steel belly pan. You car guys put your scoops up on top, we hang ‘em low!

God willing, we are going to be starting up and breaking in the 340 tonight. Waiting on the distributor hold down to show up, and I need to pick up a pair of gaskets for the exhaust manifold flanges.
 
Got everything out tonight. This front leaf spring bracket was on the edge of failing. Boy did I get lucky and caught it in time.
