    It’s been a while! How are y’all!?

    Gaba house was in a nutty season , and still is, but we are building a callous— so we can get back into things we find joy in , and not just the daily grind ..

    Hence my mustang!! Been driving it — haven’t made a change since the IL trip— still running  well except the turn signals not running well. Which I will fix sometime .

    How are y’all!!??

    And have you seen the new “Carb Cheater” made by Luke Finley (Thunderhead289) on YouTube? Very interested in it.. but also interested in thoughts .. :D

    Hope to hear from y’all soon

    If it aint broke, I have'nt tried to "Fix" it yet!

    Ain't that the guy who put the lawn mower carb on the Maverick?  And drove a beater (yet cool) Galaxie across country?   I will go look for it and watch it.

    If multiple things can go wrong, the one that will go wrong will be the one that causes the most damage.

    I was curious enough about the carb cheater to buy one.  If nothing else it is a stealth AFR gauge.

    Seriously, what is a callous, or just a misprint

    Good to hear from you Gaba, and that all is well. I've never built a callous, butt I've been called callous by some, so I should be pretty good at building one. That carb cheater guy is pretty darn smart. I enjoy his videos. I too hope to see you at the Bash.

    Checked out the carb cheater pretty slick. 

    If this forum can't fix it, it isn't broke.
