Stop in for a cup of coffee

Been so long since I kept up with this thread, I see a few I don't know and I have no idea what some of the topics are about.

But good morning In fabo land
 
Here the topics are always cars, cars and more cars.

Had to do a bee raid last night because it seems like the cooler the temps go, the more they are showing up

At the rock farm, every spring we had the Swallows that got lost going to Capistrano :BangHead: Little feathered terrors would build their little mud nests on door frames, conveyors, ceilings, just about anything hanging above our heads so they could defecate in our pathways. It got to the point that late winter I would get the manlift and a large quantity of WD40 and sprayer and make their former nesting spots too slippery for the mud to stick :lol:

Morning Rani! Long time no see. Hope all is well in your part of the world. Not much has changed here. We are all for the most part alive! We got to talking about ya the other day. I told Eric you were probably at a late summer pool party jamming out to some techno! Be safe!

Not really much of a pool party kind of summer. Got a new job and it hasn't left much time for that.

But I did recently have vacation time and drove to New Mexico for a 2 door valiant

Good morning everyone. Been lurking some, don't have **** to add. Boring as hell during recovery. Trying for daily walks. Making plans for when I can do things again.
 
It’s national coffee day! Think I’ll put another pot on
Good reason to grind some DD coffee beans.
So I forgot to hit the post button earlier. ^
Now I'm, ah to hell with it. I'll switch to beer. Never got relief for the Big Mac attack I've been suppressing since national cheese burger day.
2 weeks maybe? Oh well, bottoms up
 
I’m back, never took off, Seattle airport in a ground stop so they kicked us all off the plane! Had us on the tarmac for 45 min then taxi’d us back

I remember her offer to play for us sometime
 
i tired to start it and i sprayed some PB blaster down the cylinders, connected a battery and it turned. Turned over so i checked for spark, nothing

So i sanded the points but they didn't look bad, at least to me but I'm not really that good with points.

I checked for spark again and there was just a little tiny weak spark, but it was a spark

So I poured fuel down the throat and I was expecting fire.

The starter clicked and made a huge spark and wouldn't turn. Just clicked like a dead battery which I know isn't the case because I had just taken it off the charger

Several hours later after the starter only clicked and I even thought the starter was bad, nothing helped. I jumped the starter in the car and it only clicked and then I thought the engine was too hard to turn so I pulled the starter back off the mounting and still wouldn't turn.

So I replaced the battery cable terminals and nothing, same behavior
