Well, maybe not nuthin', but very little.
I got up and rebuilt my mom's favorite lamp, ran down to the bank to deposit some checks to replenish a badly depleted bank account, ran the lamp down to Mom's.. That was it.
Sent an e-mail to my Uncle Ben in Mexico, watched a movie.
Tomorrow I want to get the good Jensen Healey running. It now turns over with the key, but I need to install the intake manifold and carbs, get the timing right, check the gap on the points, put the distributor cap back on, attach the gas line, and cross my fingers. Shoot a little starting fluid in the carbs and turn the key and see what happens.
VVRROOOOMMMM
I hope.

Good luck on the rebuild... we want to see pics at some point!
Michael: I'll get around to pictures some time soon. Maybe tomorrow, if things go right. The one car will be a "donor" to keep the other one going. We're going to go see the National Treasure sequel tomorrow, but after that, maybe I'll have some time to get serious on getting it to run.
It sounds like you did ENOUGH today; you will make up for it with the rebuild tomorrow.
Some days are meant to be 'down time' kind of days!
Enjoy the rest of your time off, and keep us up to date on your rebuild!
Renn: I have an obligation to take care of today. V. and I have a tradition of going to the movies to see what is hot during the week between Christmas and New Years. The hot money is on the National Treasure sequel.
