One side I was there when we pulled the motor and found it. Crazy oil passed on one side only, like a ventury the drill just touched the other hole First time I saw him Really pissed off. Plus the car was just painted baby gloves pulling that one.

They did supply a new camshaft and lifters piston rings and engine bearings and a gasket set. The bottom end was also trashed. But I did have to come out of pocket for the machine work. Wasn't happy about any of it. But it got fixed. Sold the car to a good friend of mine. Still running great.

Yesterday I finally got around to fabricating and setting our fancy sign out on the road. Our acreage covers a couple of different driveways that I allow neighbor to use to get to his place. It makes the UPs and Fed X drivers crazy with their apps. Signage helps students as well get to correct drive. Blair Creek runs beside the road and only a couple of places to cross. Thus the confusion. My Dad helped me. I had to do some creative millwright rigging to accomplish. Basically lifted it up and tilted forward stabbing the posts in the holes.

I had that problem when I was buying for the Barracuda. I'd look and look for a NOS part find it and buy it. I'd run across another one and buy it on and on. I haven't bought anything for a couple years. I'm bringing all those extras to Carlisle and selling them this summer. Nothing goes home.
 
It's fun to see a Hawk in the tree. The experts tell me it's a Coopers Hawk.

As you are merrily drilling anchors with a 3/4 bit and suddenly you here the high pitch whine of the clutch, warning you, let off the trigger, or you are going to get wrapped around post. You recognize all that in your mind but nooooooooo. Ya just can’t let off the trigger in time! If you think a 3/4 bit can’t wrap you up you would be wrong! Appears the time delay from my brain to my hands is much longer than it used to be! I got the header up and both sides anchored today! Once you get one side the rest is easy. Of course the entire time I was thinking if I fall there is no one home for the rescue aspect! Concrete is hard and I don’t bounce so good anymore.

Yeah, not to mention your wrist, elbow, shoulder, neck and lower back getting wrenched suddenly.
