Tuesday

Its Christmas! Or at least for me!

The UPS man delivered my presents from Livorsi Marine. Shifter, Gauges, Speaker Covers, and a slew of other items I picked out have arrived just in time to put back in the box and sit them on the shelf for a few months : (

Well I was hoping my poker winnings would be more than they have been so I could have some play money for this project LOL. Hit some cold cards lately but I am still slightly up overall which is better then being down.

Until I break the bank or get some more of my own time in on the project it will just have to creep along best I can manage. Still I am optimistic about my July 4th kick off but I admit I grow worrisome about the deadline. I must think positive and big and a little luck and or charity would go a long way ; )

The gauges are great and Livorsi emailed me for some finished pictures of the gauges installed for their website/catalog which would be neat to see. Ill get some pics up later as I install them. There is a section in the blog with the gauges posted already.

I'm 4 or more weeks into the engine and i just scratched the surface. Not to depress you but unless you have some major help, you've got some time ahead of you. I'm in the same boat. I'm going to focus back on the boat and get that done first. If I feel rich I may buy another engine in better health and work on this classic slowly.

Sounds like a plan. Keep looking on Craigslist the engine I found I feel very lucky about. It is very very clean I may not take it apart to restore completely but will have it gone over by someone more qualified than me. Again like you depends on cash flow and its not currently flowing the right way. LOL
