      Thank you Jason

      I am having fun and I look forward to heading out to the garage. I just need to make sure when I go out that I have a plan so I don't waste time when I am out there. Someone told me years ago that I had OCD issue's and now that I am steady working on the car I think they are right.

      Don't think of them as OCD issues, think of them as OCD skills. Outstanding work.

      A little bit of everything (02-05-22 )

      A couple weeks ago I was reading one of the new magazines that are still in print and low and behold they shared a picture of
      how Holley wants you to plumb the tank vent.

      Now if I could actually figure out the part number for the fuel tank filler neck.

      Since I am still using the factory Dimmer switch I ordered the all black version of this one.

      It is finally time to bring the Anvil Carbon Inner fenders down from my Attic Office and yes the kitchen table is the perfect place to put them.

      I needed to increase the gap in between the Holley Tank and the floor. So I used the Eastwood Sound deadening to increase the space just a little bit.

      It's a good thing these trunk floors are so amenable.

      Hopefully this will be the last time the radiator goes in the car.

      So I forgot to flush the radiator so off to the spray wash to flush it out. I should mention it was only 6 degree's out and thankfully the spray
      wash uses hot water. This of course made this a very tolerable.

      I decided to lay the Anvil radiator cover on and it looks really nice. I will have to re-clear the radiator close out panel as it has yellowed.

      Anvil Carbon Inner Fenders Going in for the last time. ( 02-06-22 )

      Just ONE DAY later and the inner fenders are off the kitchen table.

      I placed the towel on the frame to protect the Powder Coating as they only sit about a 1/4' above the frame. I am going
      to address this later by trimming some off the inner fender.

      In order to install the passenger side the Billet battery Tray will have to be removed.

      I wanted to add a larger fender washer however I didn't have the correct size so I had to drill out the washer. This was my Grandfathers
      and I remember using it in his garage when I was a kid. My buddy Ben was kind enough to build me a rolling tool cart and he made a very
      cool removable mount.

      Holley Tanks Vent Hose Clamps ( 02-06-22 )

      When we mocked up the hoses on the Holley Tank I didn't install line clamps. I picked up a few line clamps from Napa and headed out to the garage.

      So do you guys think I should put some sort of foam to close out this area ?

      The line clamp routes the wires safely and securely under the core support.

      So I used one of the setting on the iPhone to take this picture. It make it look like my 1 Car stall is 20 feet wide.
