9 Days 'til Dayton. I've taken a lot of things off the to do list over the past couple weeks. Today's progress was I finished up the installation of the A/C hoses and pipes under hood. I also installed the core support to bumper A/C seals. The car is pretty much done at this point. Lots of primping to do. Alignment is scheduled for Tuesday. Need to schedule the A/C charge.
Other than the A/C and untried windshield washer, everything on the car is working. I'll get the washers primed and working this week.
The throttle cable is still crap. I've isolated the problem to the cable. It's just got tons of internal friction when its mounted to the firewall and intake bracket. Still searching for an NOS or nice used, but I can make it to Dayton with this one. I have driven the car up and down my driveway a few times. I'm getting more comfortable with it.
