So where's the Jag at???
Fifty Years Afloat
We can't alter the direction of the wind,
But we can adjust our sails
I like black plates best too.
I am just looking at different colour options to maybe put over the california plates leaving the red script showing or using the 3/4 ones as they are like US size.
Maybe i should just stick with black and hang the California plates on the wall.

Just boot lid needs paint and spongy brakes i havent looked into yet, cheap car with no rego and not really important atm.
However the EL Fairlane, our second daily driver is being used by to the youngest daughter to tow the horse float atm as her Triton has done a valve that i need to fix and her Celica that i just put a brand new distributor in broke down yesterday and tonight. The old distributor was working but was leaking oil through the shaft into the cap even after a new seal 6mths ago.
I suspect the new dizzy is faulty after having it and the old one in and out a few times today.
Really frockin busy atm
On the weekend i modified a XY Falcon 4 barrel air filter to suit the Caddy 2 barrel without wrecking it too much so it can be used on a Falcon again. Bit of a Hybrid using the lid of a Tarago air filter and the spare tyre wing nut from a Celica.
The Engine is alot quieter now and looks better than that pod filter that was on top. It will do nicely until i find the correct filter online.

It will get there, just need a day to study it and work out where i left off, and work out what i want
with the finished look of the dash/console and gauges and then run the wiring to suit.
My first priority is to modify the tank and get the electric fuel pump in so i can start the motor.

I get a giggle when i do something like that, always think of the comments on here about not throwing anything out.
Btw i will throw out the rest of the Tarago air cleaner now, its good for nothing now.

good work mate, think of the landfill you have saved! who says V8 drivers aren't green
when are you going to paint it black, each to their own of course and I know black is the of colurs but on this beast with white walls it would truly look a caddy... just my 2 cents

No plans to paint any time soon, maybe after the Fastback is on the road, but either way it will be in good sanding and painting weather Autumn or Spring when its not too hot or cold. Happy to drive as is for now.
