    Beth...Been enjoying this article since it started. Kudos on the 'TiG larnin'...that manifold looks just right, and right at home above that flattie.
    That was a lesson in the differential, glad the pieces were available. I've been suffering with my back since last Christmas, going for the third MRI next week. (Surgery? Maybe)
    I feel for you with your neck and head pain...my wife (another serious female gearhead!) and I are praying for you.

    Mike & Joey..
     
  8. Glad to see you up and out with the pooch!

    Hi all :) Well we found out that I am a for real bobble head:eek: My C2 vertebra has a break and the tendon is ruptured sooo we will have to fix it with screws and rods . I liked my Sons idea better bailing wire and duct tape :cool:. Sounds like a kinda long recovery time so all in all this sucks. I will be able to still drive Tims car because they just go straighto_O kinda. And I should be able to run my dogs with sled next year:D And finish my model T :cool:;):)Thanks to everyone for your well wishes , and I will just keep on keeping on. :rolleyes: Beth

    All the best Beth following your build down here in New Zealand its looking good
     
  13. I wish you a speedy recovery. The only problems i see with duct tape and baling wire are, the wire will get rusty and the neighbors will the your screams when they pull off the tape to change the rusty wire. :eek:
