Waiting....waiting....waiting......

I've been waiting for parts to arrive so i can get the Sport taken care of before the real cold sets in for winter. I should have my Mass Air meter and 24# injectors today,along with my other GT40 intake. If so,I'll get busy getting the intake ready (visual mods you know),and once it's ready,I'll swap it all on. I'd like to do it all at once (valve covers,mass air and injectors,intake),and then I can start saving for the seat re-covering. No real news,it just seemed kind of slow,so I thought I'd share my useless news.

I ordered my front suspension parts for the 92 LX and paid the cheapest shipping.  I had parts in two days, parts in 5 days and the last part came in 12.  I was getting very impatient.  But all the parts were in time to do the job.  I split it up in to two days.  Left side first and then the right side and the part showed up in the nick of time.

Once I have the intake done,and the valve covers painted,I can do everything in less than an hour. It's prepping the upper intake that will take the time. remove some aluminum,smooth it,paint and polish,apply the ??? and then install.

Now way,another classic. Bing Crosby,the Bob Hope Christmas Special and all of the little Christmas shows. I'm older than I used to be,but still need to see them every year. I suppose it's a way of keeping some of the old days along with all the new stuff these days. a healthy balance. I don't want to live in the past.....just look at it a little bit.LOL.

We always listened to a Ray Conniff Christmas record my parents have when I was growing up.  Now we listen to a Ray Conniff CD that I have.

I love the classic stuff. Anyone can sing a Christmas song,but only a few can relay that real feeling of Christmas. i love this time of the year. It's not about money and gifts,it goes a lot deeper than that. Most say they hate it this time of year because of....you guessed it...money. If that's the case,you're doing it all wrong.
