Re: Shes comming home today!!
Just got home!! Was a bout a 45 mile drive. She did great til about half way home, then she started surging and choking. I coaxed her a little further, trying to "just get home" She was tired, died out about 6 BLOCKS from home. Thnkfully I made it to the local body shop and knew the owner well, he just HAPPENED to be sitting out side closing up shop when we sputtered in. I had a stong feeling it was the fuel filter, and yaaay, it was, we took it out and tapped some nasty gunk out of it and put it back in (just wanted to get home) had to jump the battery and she fired up!! We made it home. she looks great sitting on the slab we poured infront of my shop, still working on the structure, but shes home safe!! I dont have a build sheet or a video, my husband did get a couple pics thhat I will post soon, im on the laptop righht now.
BIG thanks to Brett and Jim and ET at Paint and Body Concepts in Valdosta Ga, YALL ARE AWSOME!!!!!!!
