There was so much more I wanted to talk about but I will leave it along.
Enjoy!

I'm trying to figure out how to setup my WEBPAGE:
thelonepackard.com/
So as I try to figure how I'm going to set it up I uploaded a few pictures of my Maroon Packard. Select (Maroom_images) button.
So if you got an hour or two enjoy the pictues. There should be a play button to do a slide show of the pictures, enjoy.
Wes

Still plugging away.

Here it is, a snow storm hit, so all comes to a stand still.
Once I get the kids and wife back in school I can start back on my project.
So here's wishing all that they had a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Wes, this photo would be a great cover for your 2013 holiday card. Very seasonal looking. Brrrrrr... Looking forward to your next video.

(o{}p)

JW, you and anyone else is more than welcomed to use the photo.
Good to hear you enjoy the videos, sometimes I feel I'm moving to slow, but I don't want to miss anything. One thing is for sure, I'm no DIY Mark Lambert. Maybe after I'm done, I will put together a shorter version to go along with all the videos.

Well back to making videos, checked one more main bearing.

Wes, another Academy Award winning documentary. Thanks for sharing. You may want to think about a way to prime the oil pump since you have had the pick up and screen off. Maybe squirting some oil into the pick up tube would get enough oil in the pump so it will start pumping when you first turn over the engine. Also, I would suggest turning the engine over with the starter, without starting the engine, until you see oil pressure indicated on the gauge.

Well trying to get back in the swing of working on my videos.
Here's the latest:youtube.com/watch?v=hszRmHfXYTE
