Looking real good, glad to hear your test drive went smooth. Air leaks are a pain in the keester.

It is. It's the a100 tradesmen, so no side windows or back seats. It replaced my pick up truck when I sold that. I love that van, people always make scooby doo mystery machine comments about it
Looking good [cl
I had a leak problem also, last thing i checked was the gauges, as pickle says "it's the first place or the last place you look"
Yeah I'm going to get after it today. Are you going to that temecula hotrod show early February? I might try to make it up there
Thank you sir. I'm hoping that it's not to hard to remedy.

Buildin' it his way, one piece at a time...
Soapy water works great on all the fittings for chasing down the leaks.. I had a bunch of slow leaks at first... i have them all sorted except for one.. its on the back of the air gauge which is a PITA to get to. I even broke one of my gauges trying to stop the leak.
Lookin real good! [cl

I used the spray bottle of windex, it was the elbow fitting in the top of the bag. more thread sealant and torque seams to have fixed it.
thank you, and your absolutely right about the first few drives[cl[cl[cl
trailer queen
I signed up for the drive section at the grand national roadster show a few months ago. It was kind of a goal to get the car done and road worthy by this weekend. so the car is done but Im not entirely sure about driving it 230 miles in a day quite yet. So i broke down and rented a haul this morning. Off to la tomorrow. Ill probably park a few blocks away and act like i drove it up there haha
its not exactly your typical trailer queen

Good luck on the trip, take lots of pics
gran national roadster show
well we made it up to la and got the car in the drive in part of the show. The car got a lot of attention and pictures taken of it which was fun to see. The show was huge and full of all kinds of killer cars. the highlight for me was the original bat mobile and tribute to Barris.
