07/23/08Repair Picked up from RMF
I picked the car up from RMF today. The engine is finished for now. I'm taking it back in next friday for new ball joints. This time they replaced quite a bit of the fuel lines, fixed the fuel lines, and tuned up the valves, timing and carburetor and such.

07/18/08Miscellaneous Check on the car
Stopped by RMF about 5 o'clock to check out how my car was coming. They lengthened the throttle cable and fixed some fuel kinks and did some other stuff, and it currently is sounding great. I'm supposed to stop by on Monday to check out what kind of dent I've made in my wallet so far and see what I want to do next.
