well, for starters it was not raining nor was it even close to freezing, and I got a few goodies

 

I collected a bunch of throttle cables (no, i am not paranoid due to previous incedence! )

 

got one good axle (would have had 2, but when i got the other one removed, the grease plate in the DOJ cup had come off and was bouncing around in the cup!)

 

got a transfer case! from a samurai (shhhhh! nobody heard that!) (for sale if anyone realllly wants it- $100 delivered in western WA only)

 

and a rare find- a windshield! from a ea81 coupe!! and patti and I were able to remove it without breaking it!

(also for sale- $80, otherwise i am putting it in a brat that needs it) too bad it has one little rock chip in it the size of a dime, over near the passenger side....

anyone know where to get a good seal for cheap? or should i get lots of generic windshield glue?

 

there are a bunch of ea81s up there right now at the lynnwood yard for anyone who is wondering-

FYI a windshield from a coupe may not work on a Brat. Then again maybe it will. I can't remember what the interchangeability is between the hatch, brat and coupe.

The windshield will work. Got one out of a wagon in the Brat now, and replaced one in a wagon with one from a coupe once too. EA81 Windsheilds interchange in all apects. It's the other glass that doesn't.

So, there is an Austin out there, I was afraid he had disappeared off the face of the earth. Actually he called me about a half hour ago.

yeah, i am still here.. I have even posted a bit here and there too, but not as much as i used to...

I have been dealing with my money issues, trying to bring my monthly bills down and finish some current projects-

 

but with the coming of spring and summer, I will become more active again hopefully!

 

there is even some planning going on with Patti and I to take a big road trip this summer/late spring hopefully- down the coast all the way to AZ, then back up the other side ofthe mountains home... but its all just a thought at this point..

 

Hey Austin...

 

Hoped to see you at PaP but got a call from Rob after talking to you, and heded down to Buckley, hit PaP later (@3)

 

Think I am mostly set now btw.

 

Take it easy
