189 viewsThe clean engine bay.

180 viewsCheck out the carb preheat tube! From what I was able to see, it seemed to pull the preheat air from the engine cooling exhaust air region below the #2 cylinder.

182 viewsAdam "Z CHEF" whipping up dinner for us. A long, hot car show day gets one hungry!

182 viewsMonday morning, leaving our camp site and headed for home.

184 viewsTook a break at the mall. Here Bob is practicing his James Dean cool look in the parking lot :-p

204 viewsNot every trip is perfect. After leaving the shop to replace a blown air bag (manufacturing defect) the clutch failed. We ate lunch, every body left except Bob, and we went back to the shop to fix the problem.

|

186 viewsAfter lowering the engine we found the problem, the right throw out bearing arm on the clutch arm broke its weld. We got it welded back on, installed and hit the road...running way behind schedule.

179 viewsBob fixed the brake light and turn signals while we had the time.

186 viewsLooks like a Fasty is giving birth to a mechanic!
After the boarder crossing Bob was having some issues with his ride. A new engine air boot, re-clamping his left air cleaner base, and off-setting the top of the rear trunk lid (he's not running with an engine lid) greatly helped out his ride. We got home after 2am (and it was chilly in The Bucket) but it was all worth it!
