    Well I had a bad day yesterday. To quote my father I was a magician, everything I touched I turned to crap. The trans had to come back out of the car. We were going to pull the tailshaft off of the trans and get the speedo gear out of it. Well the whole shaft pulled out. I did not know that would happen.

    The needle bearings fell down in it. I took it to another friend of mine and he is going to take it apart today and fix it. When he is done it will be in good shape.

    The brakes are bled the tank and sending unit are in all thats left is the trans and the water pump.

    That wagon is awesome!!!!!!

    I took today off and I am on my way to work on the wagon. The trans is done. The man who rebuilt it said everything on the inside was in great shape. Today is the day I hope to be driving this afternoon:)

    Two steps forward, one backward, eh...??? Sometimes that's how it goes when you build...stay with it, you'll eventually get on top of it...

    "It's the journey, not the destination"...in other words: "Getting there is half the fun." Most times, for me anyway, "getting there" is 3/4's of the fun...!!!
