Got off to a slow start, musta been some slow brew coffee. Glass beaded and powder coated the timing cover on a flat head. Finished up porting the intakes on the block and one side of the exhaust on the same engine. Meet up with a friend with a roll back and hauled home the 64 Falcon Sprint, I bought about a week ago. Drove about 50 miles to a friends house to check out a miss on his 60 chebbie, only 50K miles, 2 door, looks good. Checked dist advances, choke was not connected to the bimetal spring, not the problem. Missed at high vac cruise, very light miss at idle, clean on any acceleration. One side of the carb would not respond to adj, Figured ethanol, not been using Sta bil, yet. Pulled the carb, base gasket broken, probably vac leak problem, but he still wanted me to take the carb apart and make sure there were no ethanol grimlens inside.
Humidity was about 1000 percent and the temp was about 98 F.

 Besides she's always had a cooler head than me in a crisis. Once while she was fixing breakfast the toaster caught on fire  Most women I know would have ran around waving their hands and squealing but not her! She calmly unplugged the toaster, picked it up, walked over and opened the back door and threw the toaster out in the yard......without ever breaking the conversation  Thanks for the B-day wishes!

Second attempt at fabbing radius rod brackets on the speedster may work. Just not going to look as interesting.Next will be a steering arm and some front turn signals starting with fog light lenses and that will about do it except for wiring.
