Re: HA's 52 200 Grey Ghost

My brother-in-law Dan was here for a couple days this week, for meetings at the University. So he wanted a tour to see how the Ghost was coming along, since he was the last one to have it running in the mid-70's. We opened the hangar door a bit (raining/snowing outside and dark so no going for a drive) and fired the old girl up. We chatted to the tune of the noisy lifter for awhile and traded thoughts about what course of action to take.
He said seeing the old car makes him want to take on a project too, he has a few stashed in the shelterbelt trees back at the farm plus some options up in north-central ND where he lives. But he has a ton of work ahead of him, he is having a house moved to his place and has been building the basement etc to set it on, and then he'll spend the winter remodeling. Doesn't mean he doesn't want a project, just no time or funds right now.
Tonight after work I unfolded all my plastic sheeting and reassembled my plastic garage, since from now on the high temps will be in the 20's and 30's and trending down. Next step is the new wiring, whenever I can get some time. Tomorrow we are driving to central MN to watch our son run his final cross-country race of the year, the weather is supposed to stink so that will be fun!
