It's that time of weekend...what did you get done on your ride?

I didn't plan on doing too much, but I did get a little more done than expected.
I went in friday night to work on the 'ole girl, only to find out that the brand new fuel pressure \regulator that I had installed wed was stopped up. Clogged, broken...I don't know. All I know is Jegs is getting it back tomorow.
If you've ever towed a vehicle with a chain...but only had one driver, you know what I went through. Throw in an under powered Lincoln doing the dragging, and a gravle parking lot with lots of ice, and you can imagine the fun I had.
I washed the truck...and the Lincoln...just for sh!ts and giggles mostly, however, i must say it has been a loooooong time since I've seen the gold paint without the mold all over it.
Took a few items off, scuffed down all the mismatched panels, and got them all in a coat of cheap spray bomb gray primer. Reinstalled the eyebrow trim and then painted/installed the drivers side door mirror...painted white of course.
Messed with the carb a bit, removed the fuel pressure regulator, put 10 gallons of fuel in it...and called it a day.
Aerial shot...(climbed on top of a cabinet for this shot...anything for a good pic, right?)
