Hey! Spent the weekend in the Garage assembling the engine -
another weekend or two and I MAY have the car back together. Took
plenty of pictures on the assembly that I will put on my site
eventually. Firmly planning to head to VIR the weekend of April
12th for the VDCA Wild Hare Run. Of course, need to get the car
together before then but surely I'll be able to do that. If I (a
NON-retired guy) need to take some time off to get it done, I'll do
it! If my plans this year pan out, I'll log more towing miles than
I've ever done. I'm in Illinois. Planning on Virginia in
April, Portland in September (better be DRY!!!!), and Oklahoma in
October. Will be great to connect with old friends in each remote
site (as well as the "normal" - OK, not so normal - crowd in
the midwest for Blackhawk and Road America).<br><br>
With this August group, I feel like I've got best friends all over the
country!<br><br>

By the way, I'm soliciting feedback on the "uncle jack's engine
assembly tips" at:
<a href="http://www.tonydrews.com/uncle_jacks_engine_building_tips.htm" eudora="autourl">
http://www.tonydrews.com/uncle_jacks_engine_building_tips.htm</a> .
While it's got a lot of uncle jack's knowledge, it seems like the
"folks in the know" could comment on / add to / refute the
information that's there and we'd benefit the whole wet sleeve
community. That would be cool.<br><br>
