The title says it all.

Some of you have secret projects underway and won't particpate here but I know alot of you out there are still working on things in the leadup to the convention.

What do you have left to do?

* Replace the two worn front tyres
* Regas the air conditioning (it would be nice to have it working again)
* Put my passenger seat back in
* Put the (now repaired) heater core back in and reconnect
reinstall dash parts (glovebox, hush panel, and some         switchgear)
* Detail the car and clean off some excess polish
* Have mufflers re-aligned.

Servicing it today and I found a suspect brake hose so that is being replaced. After that I am going over to the G/F's to do a test pack to make sure we can fit in all her shoes.
A bit of driving this week to make sure everything is OK then leave on the 2nd when the caravan passes through Melbourne.
I had my mufflers realigned last time I did some work on it and gained 5 hp. It was either that or the new stickers I put on the aircleaner.:):):):)

We are only going to the drags (I understand) but you can have a ride in IND99 if you want.

I'm in a bit of a panic though! Not about Red Baron (note: The Red Baron was shot down in the war!). But I have this horrible feeling my Super Skunk may not even make it?????? Parts have still not been put in yet! Then I have to try and run it in a bit???:(:(:(:(:(

We'll understand if you are running it in and don't want to unleash it.

Don't make a habit of it!  ;-)
