What Did Ya Get Done This Weekend?

Got the 59AB in the 34 Coupe running well enough to take it around the block. Still need to fine tune it and an exhaust system although, it sounds good with open headers.

I bought a Henry J gasser project saturday. Got it stashed away in my shed this morning where it will have to wait 'til I get some parts bought and a solid plan figured out.

Removed the wood deck on my car trailer, painted it and replaced the wood. Looks like a new trailer!

Boy do I envy you..........I want a Henry J in the worst way.

All we got done this weekend was we completely cleaned the shop and office............it was a DISASTER ! Couldn't find anything and we had to trip over stuff to get anything done. Now it is nice and clean and we even shampooed the carpet in the office. Dan and I did it and is Don going to be surprised when he sees it.

Now maybe I can get Dan to finish welding the frame for my rpu project.

Pulled the cab off, took the engine out, pulled the bellhousing, put it back on, installed the clutch and pressure plate, bought three different throw out bearings, finally found one that would work.

Put the transmission in, finally finished boxing the frame, reinstalled the engine and tranny.

Now I need to fab the clutch pedal linkage and add a few brake lines then it will be time for the first illegal test drive. Maybe in two or three weeks.

i found someone that could make me a speedo cable for my chevy transmision and volkswagen spedo,(instrument exchange in houston) got it installed and it was even correct on the speed according to
the harley rider i was hollerin at goin down the road next to me.
also got my fuel gauge on the volkswagen speedo hooked up and it
works had to take the tickler off the back of the guage and now i
have a fuel guage and odometer that works so i don't have to stop
and stick my fuel tank to know when to fuel up.
last weekend i got the cypress wood deck put in the bed of my 40
and the bucket seats put in. if i keep it purdyin it up it ain't gonna
be a rat no more.

Sold the 56 two door handyman wagon this weekend. I learned a few things in the process about tri five Chevys and found the car wasn't as solid as I had originally thought.

Thanks mrcar56 for everything
