Took forever, but got the driveshaft in today. It's a bitch having limited strength and flexibility in your dominant arm. Got a tracking # for my radiator last night, should be here next week.

I took the more southern route home...I-20
Didn't hit any precip until around the state line. About the same area as when I drove thru there on the way to the HOD show early that morning.
I too am SO tired of all this rain...it's doing so here right now and has most of the afternoon.

Was not a good start to my day. Went down south to a car show and this is what happened on the way down


And then this happened

Hasn't rained here in 3 months. Got my leak test done.

I was the last car in because of the flat on the trailer and got parked in the back next to the BQ area.


But the day did end better


And I made it back home with no problems.

Just gathering parts lately, new radiator, ignition coil, mandrel bent tail pipes are here, & a master cylinder is in the mail. I need belts, and a battery next.

Once I feel up to it, lots of assembly to be done. Then on the trailer for a front end alignment and exhaust system.

Started repairs on the trailer today and worked on the deck before winter gets here. Looking for wheels and tires for the car trailer for the Chevelle. Need to get the Chevelle over to a friends house and on his lift to find out where my oil leak is.
