removed the surface rust on and around my firewall, and prepped it ready for final coat of paint tomorrow - a productive day, just not exciting.

Trying to get Zelda back on the road.
Replaced distributor, blocked off pre-heater pipes on exhaust, connected heater boxes to fan shroud, re-timed her.
Drove around the block, just.
Need to tune the carbs but it is a bit of a touch and go thing.

We had a mad jjj hottest 100 party with about 40 people rocking up for a 30meter waterslide down our yard and an 'alternative' barbeque with lamb souvlaki. All ages had a good time with several beverages consumed and the rain holding off for the day. I'm not overly patriotic but I wouldnt live anywhere else and believe you dont need to play backyard cricket ,drive a holden or drink xxxx to be a proud aussie.(just dont ask me to oi oi oi)

Must have been a doay for starter motors. Mine stopped working during the week, so I removed it to get it repaired (dropped it in today) I am using an MDK starter untill then - Mum, Dad, and the Kids all out and push. 😂😂😂
Also tried replacement cables to get my reversing camera to work - fail.
and tried an old blinker switch to try and get my blinkers working - fail.
Ended up going to my sisters partners house in Wauchope (my wife & daughter were helping her move there), stayed for dinner, then drove to Taree ready to start work this morning.
