Good effort. I was just speculating you might need to borrow a car for temora, thinking about whether we could get both our runners there.

Might be a good excuse to buy another one
not doing anything today, just got back from a club Christmas breakfast and going out at 3 for another get together plus its 41 degrees here

Good effort Blacky walked into my workshop yesterday and today thermometer tops out at 50' C expecting it to blow its top, worked at the mother in laws houes yesterday trying to get it ready to sell had to move 3 cubes of mulch and just about killed us in 41'C

i'll take mid to high 40s as long as it's dry instead of the mid to low 30s here with 500% humidity you can see the moisture in the air you literally only have to think about doing something and you are drenched in sweat

Yeah you can keep the humidity Mick, when I was working in Gove, Fiji, Solomon Islands etc it was only ever mid thirties tops but you are sweating like a whore in church all day .........

So I got this far yesterday- got to 43 at one point so a couple of dips in the pool were in order- air conditioning in the shed is a big bonus behind that Lincoln grille is an evaporative cooler

Coming a long nicely. Must be some relief in sight? Forecast 36C in Adelaide tomorrow.

They arrested me, and put me in jail,
So I called my pop to post my bail.
He said “Son, you’re going to drive me to drinking
If you don’t quit driving that hotrod Lincoln.”.

that's a shitty point to be at you look at it and think just gotts add XYZ and it should start should only take half an hour

Close Mick , took about 2 hours after I broke a spark plug and had to go into town to get a replacement…
Running now, have bedded the cam in but I am buggered if I can find the top radiator support bar so I can’t lock the bonnet down and road test it ….

Good one Blacky,

Always rewarding when an engine fires up after a rebuild.
Lets just hope any smoke is residual, although your muffler might contain a litre or two !!!!
