Unfortunately, it means my stuff gets neglected, LOL. I don't mind working on projects that I'm not funding, however. Kinda nice,actually. And the fusible link fixed his charging issue. We took it out for a spin yesterday.... I drove it a few miles too. That son of a gun is pretty fast. The previous owner did some work to it... but he can't remember everything that was done.
Anyway... he had taken this to a dealer, and another guy (a friend of his) that owns a chain of repair shops. Nobody ever thought about the fusible link issue.... kind of weird. I was teasing him because the fusible link I used to fix it said "Ford" on the package, LOL.
Along with driving his Vette yesterday, I also got to drive this 70 Mach 1, basically my dream car. It has no 3rd gear, so I think we'll be pulling this trans apart. It also holds 1st a little longer than it should. It a 351C, and man does it sound good!
I like too many of those old muscle cars too much not have one...one day. Hopefully my hair won't be grey...yet lol.
I've watched a couple of them, but yeah... gotten behind for sure. I've been doing a crap ton of learning, and filming my own content. I have someone that is also wanting to do a collaboration project with me for both of our channels. Don't know when I'll fit that in, lol. The real rock star through all of this has been my Wife though. I work somewhere at least 6 days out of the week, and she has been handling all of the other crap.... yard work, house work, meal preps... and everything else that Mom's do.
I'm way behind on eight nine garage.
But will catch up when it gets cold out.
Thanks Noobs! It's plugging right along!
Ron just called me about the 70 Mach. I guess he's going to bring it back to us on Friday to do some tuning (engine is only producing 5-6 inches of vacuum at idle), and the C4 in it. It definitely needs to see a timing light.... it diesels when it's hot too.
EDIT: OHHHH.... and it's also about to go in for some body work and paint soon. I'd like to get our stuff done prior to the paint!

Out of the two, I watch Fab Rats first then MORR. Watched them both while cooling off in the house. It's only 78, feels hotter after a little Mexican backhoe duty.
