    Now that I've got my resto done, under a tarp, I'll be planning and building a 2-bay garage. If I get done by September, I'll look around for another Fox-bodied wagon.

    I really haven't used it much, except in -30C weather to go shopping. But I do shovel it out and warm it up to keep it charged up. :p

    -Well I have to repack the front rotor bearing since I didn't use high temp wheel bearing grease...DOHHH!!:slap:

    -Replace a couple tierod end bootas...the new ones have already split...:mad:

    -Install new Proportioning brake valve...old rusty and crusty one "drags on".

    -Pull the gas tank and install new seals, filler neck and sending unit...and also check for holes in tank and hopefully this will stop fuel from leaking out of the tank...but only if I put more then 3/4 into the tank.....:huh:

    -Keep searching for some NOS material to fix my front seat.

    And then lots of driving and enjoying....(y)

    Hi Folks,

    Looks like you have some good projects going :), some of you have already started with some tube works :)..

    I'm hopeing to drag all our cars together, get them over to our friend and start shipping it all over. Going to be lots of things to setup and arrange this comming year..

    If you live in Europe you might want to talk to us since we will ship lots of containers over the pond..

    Anyways it will be interesting and hopefully it will not be to many nasty surprices. I can't really put my finger on what will be the best to get home... the 58 Caballero or the 71 Vista or the 76 Buick or the 76/77 Vista or ??? hehe my head is spinning..

    Cheers Dyna

    PS: Yes taking home a few normal cars too so it will be happy times here :)
