    So where are you on your project? What are your plans, aside from honeydo's and hafta-do's, for your project?

    This weekend my goal is to finish grinding, smoothing and polishing my aluminum wheels, install a new tailshaft bushing in my M22 and then install my rebuilt driveshaft, finish sanding and then paint my steering wheel and if I have time, finish smoothing my cast exhaust manifolds. I may stop at the steering wheel because all that grinding and sanding starts to wear on the nerves, but that's my goal for now...

    I am traveling and can't work on my projects. So, I must order parts for when I return.

    SPW wiper kit, wiper trim, wipers, distributor, carb heat isolator, preamp for tunes, etc... I am also in deep study over a new compressor for my shop.

  16. Find my mate, so i can borrow the correct tool to undo the bolts holding the crappy T box on my firewall.
    Then replace it with this nice new one, and finish up a little art project.

    Finish making the rear third of the subrails and get them welded in.
    Surf CL for an affordable windshield frame so I can start bringing one of the A-pilars back to true. Might dig the 28 out tomorrow and give the kids a ride.
