First Start of Year

[GTO Man]

Nice day so decided to get one of the cars started. Started right up, no leaks, that is the main worry. Want to take it down to Janesville for a little work end of next week. hopefully the weather cooperates.

Lucky man. I began to break stuff out of hibernation too.

Yesterday, I discovered that a buddy’s Pinzgauer (which I had over the winter to rebuild the clutch slave, and replace the clutch), also has a bad wheel drive bearing. Like I needed another full-day repair… :sick:

I’m still waiting to get one of my throttle bases back from a machinist, so I can finish the carb rebuilds and get my own Pinzgauer on the road.

I just keep telling myself that it isn’t really spring yet.

My car will be in storage for another month or so… we have some work to do yet.

Counting down the days until Automotion!!

The Mustang is still in hibernation, too. I have filled the garage space around it with garage sale stuff for our neighborhood garage sale which is the last weekend in April (Jefferson Weekend). After the garage sale is done, and I have room to back the car out, I will take the cover off, service it, and get it on the road. I do need to replace the instrument cluster this year.

I will be replacing the interior in the Monte this weekend. Sent the buckets and backeseat out to recovered. Also putting in a Husrt Pro matic 2 shifter. Then might fire her up and let her run. But wont be coming out till the end of april. Cant wait………
