Anyhow, I'll get some pics up and we'll get this party started...when the back and neck are healed up enough.

you healed yet?

Starting to do things. I've ordered some parts and hope to get going in the next couple of weeks.

Next weekend is an EMC dyno session. I should get at it after that.

Two accidents in one year...hasn't been a great 12 months!

I wish I were closer, I'd finish it for you

**Bob Holmes** · August 19th, 2012 05:42 PM

I greatly appreciate that.

I'm looking forward to getting back at it. By the way, I bought a NASCAR boom tube to finish off the exhaust. Well, its actually long enough to make several ends. Should be fun fab'ing that up. I'm looking to exit the exhaust in front of the passenger side rear. I do have a 3" that goes over the axle and threads through the panhard, but even with a smoke wrench and BFH to massage to fit, it still hit from time to time.

it's not hitting, it's self-clearancing

**SuperBuickGuy** · September 19th, 2012 03:00 PM

Bob, updates?

**Bob Holmes** · September 19th, 2012 08:29 PM

Just sorted out a title issue. Woot!!

Still motivating the youngest on his Ranger engine swap. I'll start working on the Furd this weekend while he's doing his final screwing around with the Ranger.

I'll take some pictures. The thing looks a little forlorn under its cover. Dusty as hell (wife drags the horse arena twice a day), needs a bath and then I'll have to sit down and do the "list."

I started working out with a trainer in order to get some strength back. Who knew that healing hurt so much

if necessary, we can crack a whip from afar

sounds like horses are a drag

It's Engine Masters season, bob has been thrashing for weeks. Cut him a little slack.

I didn't realize I was talking to you. Sorry for giving you that impression.
