Re: The return of Li’l Red…a reunion story

I don't know if "glory" is the right word...maybe "shinier days" is the best we will ever find. Unfortunately, I am still looking through old stuff that was in my parents house from years ago.

Re: The return of Li’l Red…a reunion story

Little stuff. Patched up some wiring, worked on the door latches and window regulators, replaced a vent window, straightened the grille some. Things like that. It still needs some front end work that I just haven't had time to get around to. The front cross member rivets are worn and it lets the frame rails move around more than they should under steering loads. I was out looking at it today, gonna try to replace them this week.

I've been busy with other things, my wife and I have a new baby (our second) and I started my own business back earlier this year. Finding free time has been tough.
