suggestion, maybe u should start a build thread. that way the whole forum, not just the few of us locals here, can watch the progress. even those that remember ur SE from DGRR. start by how all this began with a simple compression test and now doing the wrenching urself.

you know I thought of that but since this is pretty basic stuff I just tore into it and forgot to take pics. The more I get things out of the way for the radiator egress the more I realize I'm going to do some cosmetics in the nose area to the frame and bracketry. Going to mask and paint all the black I can find in a tasteful way. She is so clean and hardly any noticeable rust, of which is still surface dust, that I'd be stupid not to freshen her up!

On that "my own build thread" it's a good idea. But you gotta understand that this is the first time I'm wrenching on my car since... 1975. I feel like a green newbie compared to these OGTA gods of rotary resurrection. I just figure to share what I'm doing here to show the gods I'm willing to give it an honest try. So far I'm having a great time learning my 7 more intimately.

I'm doing a thread but it's different. It's called "85 SE radiator resurrection " for anyone interested. It starts at the VERY beginning.. hope it's not too lame.

Trump fired Comey. What a Cowardly Little *****.

To those of you who voted for or still support the Cowardly Little *****, my condolences.

The Rotary Gods are watching and they aren't happy when rich ***** and russians start sucking our paychecks.

We need those bucks to buy rotors and housings.

You're probably right Tim, we shouldn't get too worried about our democracy being threatened by the Cowardly Little *****.

I mean, this Russian stuff is all just Fake News, right?

Just look at this crap on CNN today, claiming that the CLP has links to Russia and Vladimir Putin:

The many paths from Trump to Russia

Can't be true, it's all made up. Just ask Mike Pence or any of the other Republican Stooges.

Small hands, Little *****.

Yes I have Tommy, Pandora's Box is a metaphor for several things.

One would be making deals with the Russian's during the US Presidential campaign.
