ABodyBetty's new baby comes home!!!

FLOOR IT DANG IT!!!

When you have no throttle responce (or different than what you're used to) you may have to make some adjustments to driving patterns!!

Both our v-8's will burn the rubber off the steelies if you're not easy on the throttle.
First time I drove Fern (I purchased without hearing run or test drive!) was the first Monday after we got her I drove her down on the 4AM run to double D's for coffee with Baby's tags. Comming out onto the highway I had to check to see if I was in gear and if the hand brake was left on!!!
That dang fuel waste light on the turnsignal indicator drives me nuts! First time I drove it I thought "GREAT! another BOF with electrical problems!!! Then read the owners manual!
Haven't looked much into engine compartment yet. That's tomarrow. I won't even check the oil untill I wash out the engine compartment!!
From what I have seen so far, the air filter is black, fuel filter see through is rust brown and so on. I figure dial it in with all that, a carb rebuild and different intake/exhaust manifolds. The exhaust one is cracked in many places and I figure with my access to junk yard would be easier to replace as 1 unit.
I did get some pics for you guys today of paint but I'm tired, I'll post tomarrow. Besides, in person it's a little patchy but it is only 1 thin coat = whole car with only 1 quart!! LOL!!!
Will need new headliner due to ours turning to dust when I tried to restretch it back on at the rear glass, RRRRIIIIPPPPPP!!!!! (Everyting is 2 steps foward 1 step back) Man I hate replacing those! Just a huge mess, well not as bad as cleaning windshield gaskets but almost!! Nasty insulation everywhere!
I can already tell this is going to be 1 spoiled Fernified DIVA!
Another BOF in the making but with nothing to back up the attitude!!8)
Did get license plates today for her!!
Now I have to locate a green headliner!!! Jezzz
