Hi Edward,
Your patientce in getting your rig back is amazing. Mine’s been receiving care away from home for just over 6 months and I’m pulling my hair out. and I can’t even drive!
I’m glad you are about to get back out for adventures soon.
Best,
Eric Caron

made it a snap
This list is a lifesaver for me
Now down to Monday washing and waxing then installing the small car oil dip stick and bundling up some wiring from the electronics box to the engine. it is subie powered
Spent couple of days just cleaning the interior it sat for almost two years at the body shop some time with the top off etc some one took the blue tarp that was covering the top
Next week will pack it up to be ready for our first trip in over 5 years
When we get back from the short trip will get the AC serviced
I have put rattle trap over much of the side panels including doors , fire wall and engine cover etc
Will do the front wheel wells under the carpet when we get back most likely will not have time before
Looking forward to hearing how much better the noise level is
Have enough rattle trap yet to do the front floor under the carpet also will listen on this trip to see where the noise comes from
Even though I am technically retired still cleaning up paperwork from the two businesses taking care of my sisters estate
learning new computer programs Lightroom and adobe bridge just got a new Epson 9 color printer for photos
learning how to make sourdough bread getting my garden small as it is together etc
Guess I do not know how to slow down have worked 65 hour weeks most of my life in the film business and before
worked while in high school and 40 hours a week while carrying 12 hours at university need ed work for the $ and school to stay out of Viet nam ended up in the air force in Korea America force radio and tv
