build diary August 5, 2005: You can tell there's an event coming up. I didn't do a whole lot last night. The sway bar bushings were replaced with some polyurethane ones that I found at FM. The rear bulkhead panel was finished. A couple of leaking gas line connections were fixed. And for the first time in months, I fired her up! She started very happily as if I'd never been gone. With just a bit of work left, I'll have it on the road tomorrow. That's the plan anyhow. Then I'll see how well the sways work out. I've decided to take both the Mini and the Seven to the autocross - this could be some interesting inter-garage rivalry. Janel has volunteered to drive the Mini out for me. Seems she likes it better than the Seven - or perhaps it's just less intimidating. entry 937 of 1439 |
