Good deal you sure had a nice day weather wise to work on it. Did you get the electric water pump kit you won yet? I am hoping to get a little work done on the new Hornet tomorrow afternoon. I need to get some grease on my hands working on the car instead of plastic glue and sanding dust. At least it starts easier since the weather is warmer. I still need to install that manual choke and rebuild the carb.
