Slow, Driving Rustoration 1972 Dart
Last night I had my first sleepless night in anticipation of this weekend! So excited, so much to get done, I was mentally trying to prepare how it all would get done, and as an eagle scout I like to be prepared.
In that vein I have created a spreadsheet detailing what I want to do in Iowa, and how quickly to return to work by Tuesday. I feel I have given myself plenty of time on some things and possibly not enough on others.
Whatever duration estimates you think I have wrong feel free to let me know. Not all of the repair jobs need to be done, I just tried to think of everything that would cause a breakdown on the road. Remember to take into account that my father and a friend will all be there so breaks for parts/food/beer runs not totally necessary. My dad has over 65 years experience in every aspect of car repair, and I have about 35. My friend is funny and knows which end of a screwdriver to hold.
It's about 470 miles from Fort Dodge, IA to Hutchinson, KS. AAA card in my back pocket.
Have fun messing with my estimates!
