My wife and I just moved to a new city and we became a 1 car family. So I sold my toy cars. The BMW was the city/bad weather driver and the Lexus was the tourer.
We are hoping to leave the city in 4 years or so and I am anxiously awaiting purchasing another toy car.

It was a gorgeous day here. Got out the '71 Mach 1 for an hour and ran her good.

I have, as of this past weekend, rebuilt or verified as working, everything in the fuel system of our '73 Mach 1. Carb rebuilt, new fuel pump, steel lines blown out, new rubber sections installed.
Everything that had to be removed to service the fuel system is back together, including the AC system.
Battery finished charging late last night.
Next weekend, I will add gas to the tank. If it flows out the front line that goes to the pump, the car should run, as gas did not flow out the front when I started this whole thing months ago (I have access to the car only on weekends).
When I began this, it ran off of a gas can can under the fuel pump, but not with the line to the tank hooked up, and no gas was flowing out the front line when I disconnected it from the fuel pump.
Harv, fuel should come out of the front hose, shouldn't it? Isn't it gravity fed up to that point?

Nice! Back in the mid-80s I had a '75, and it was one of the best cars I've owned.70 Monte Carlo

Thought i’d throw this into the mix.
My daily driver and my Christmas present to myself a year ago. Santa’s old sleigh. 04 Victory Edition with some extras. I drive it from gas station to gas station.
Be well. Bowen

I can't believe I've had my '62 Falcon for three years and never posted it here. It's for sale now so I can start the next project. I had planned on keeping and driving the '62 forever, but a change of careers and a change of location made it redundant, so I'm replacing it with a '60 Dodge pickup and putting the money I get out of the Falcon into a 1923 Ford Model T touring car.
