Like John, I went to work and got the remainder of the photos edited and on the server last nite:

Today, the Camaro Beater got a new windshield and I found a new nose at a junkyard for $65. It's an 82 and not an 88, but it'll be better than the ripped one that's on there. I just need to pull the old one off and straighten the fenders a bit. The guy who helped me at the junkyard seemed older than I, told me that he had 8 Stents in his chest and smoked like a chimney. But he was one REAL nice guy and seems to have a memory like an elephant. He knew exactly what was in inventory and told me that when the next 88/89 Camaro that comes in, he'll pull the whole front clip off for me if it's in good condition. It's good to have friends at junkyards.

In other news (seems to be a recurring theme), I'm still on my diet. I've lost 39 pounds and seem to be at a plateau at 161. I need to get rid of 11 more.

And I need to work on the photos from Monday's show in the heat of the day (it's really not that hot...82) and then go work on cars this evening. Yesterday I finished wiring up the relay for the ignition box on the race car. That's the end of the wiring from the terminal strips...now I need to do some tidying up, put the wires in looms and fit the ends and top to the distribution box. It's some sorta progress.

I have some time, and I am going to make time RIGHT NOW to finish the Concours pictures from last August.

Look for a post.
