Ya know Bob, we had that talk bout things we can do together. N'I said,  "We could drive the Vert up there, N' you direct me to do the EFI warin, & stuff." The unsaid part is, Ms. Karol & I could drive up there, N' you & me could just as easy help Ms. Jean get her coupe on the road.
I knew I shoulda called.
I had once uppon a time suggested we hold the Bash at a location, we (the visitors) could all help a fellow FYI'er get some things done.

How blessed is a guy who has so many willing, helpful friends.  Man, I don't feel worthy.

The car is really pretty close, Corky.  I 'm confident that it will be going down the road by the end of June...maybe sooner.  Actually, it could now if I had a milk crate to set on.  That should give me plenty of time to work out any kinks...in the car AND in my old tired carcass. 

I think MS got the idea that I was losing my enthusiasm but that's just not so.  I was just telling him  how I had gone over a week without touching the car...due to various mishaps. 

Thanks for all the encouragement and offers of help, guys.  Like I keep telling the newbys...this is the best place on the web.   Now please, quit worrying about the old man and get busy getting your own cars road worthy.  I'd love to see us fill the parking lot in Wemberley but failing that, I know  we'll fill the lobby and that's what's important. 

You can worry about me when you hear me say, "I think I'll just sell it!".

BB - take your time and let it heal.  I'm sure, like the rest of us, sitting around, especially when there are things to be done, drives you crazy ... get better soon.

Hey BB,

Last week I was finally able to work on my coupe. The only problem was, it was blazing hot in my shop but, I solved that problem by wearing my european man-thong.......I'll send you some pic's.....that outta cheer you up.....just to keep it mustang related, I stenciled mustangsteve.com on the front (in really small letters)...

I'm biting my tongue,  did you ever hear that joke about the "eat at joe's" sign that was written on a pair of mens underwear? 

Hey Bob as you can see we all are In your corner. If it is one nut at a time,  that's progress.

That's ok Hakan.........that's a good pic.......I have a better tan this year.......

Now I know why I didn's see any evidence of rats or mice in Glen and Steves bone yard....oops, perhaps a poor choice of words, there. 

Thanks Hakan...made my day.

hakan,  can you graft a " mustangsteve.com" logo onto that thong? 

BB  what does SNAFU stand for?

Ah, well....it's an old military term, Mark.  I'll have to relate it to you in person or...You'll have a PM in just a  few minutes.

Actually, Steve is home.......watching it rain, again.

I was at Glen's attending his spark plug changing "summer camp".......it's a grueling program but could prove beneficial.
Anyway, I decided to sport my spark plug changing contest attire for this year's Bash.......Hakan leaked the photo so, everyone just act surprised a the Bash.....

I wish I could do more than offer encouragement.  If I was nearby, I'd help as best I can.

I also have back issues, but mine is kind of bizarre.  I can lift a refridgerator on a pickup myself and have zero pain.  No pain the rest of the day, that night, next moring.  But about 24 hours after I over extend, it feels like someone comes up and knifes me in the small of my back.  Can barely walk for 5 days and have pain and stiffness for 4 to 6 weeks.  I over extended yesterday (self employed, no real choice) and dread mid afternoon today.
