Well I haven't died yet but the build has slowed down because my shop is not insulated or heated. It's 18 degrees out this morning with three inches of snow on the ground. I know, I know, for some of you Northerners thats balmy weather and your probably on your way to your favorite ice fishing hole, but this old body needs heat.
I did get the gas tank installed and started doing the plumbing before it got miserable out there. Sooo, I started ordering some parts. Decided on the Speedway Stainless Steel Rams Horn manifolds and they arrived last week. Got some other engine parts too. HEI distributor, One wire Alternator, Fuel pump. Lots more to get yet.
I moved indoors into the wood shop and am in the process of finishing the lamp I started for my daughter Mary last year. She acquired the bones of a saguaro cactus from her friend Bubba (Automatic Slim) in Texas about 5 or more years ago. Mary asked me to make a lamp out of it and after a lot of pondering I decided to make a lamp/display case for it. She likes the Southwestern motif so thats what i'm building. I'll post a picture here when I get it finished. Should be in a week or two.
Meanwhile, Stay warm. I'm trying to.
