After giving Henry a hard time not long ago for letting his blog fall off the first page I went and did it myself.

I've been working on the Packard off and on. The passenger side hinge post is giving me a headache. Once its done I can make a lot more progress. I am under no illusion that this project is going to be done anytime soon so just taking my time.

I bought that box of spare parts that Dallas had for sale here a couple weeks ago. There was a "Four Hundred" script inside and I needed one bad. Was worth the $50 for that and a couple other parts that were inside. I found a "The" script on Mike Borth's web site and have already contacted him about that.

The engine parts that I bought from Jack Vines will be here with Fed Ex tomorrow.

The farm takes priority in the spring and we have 700 Lavender plants in the garage floor right now waiting for the rain to stop and soil to dry up.
