Default OCD is out of hibernation

Late start for me this year.. OCD just made her first appearance yesterday. Still covered and needs a bunch of work to get her back (to my standards). Nothing major but I don't have the Flying Magical Mechanic to help me this year.

So it looks like I am going to undertake everything myself!



Weather permitting splash day Saturday the 19th!

I'm out too!. All waxed and ready to drop in on Saturday for a shakedown run. I got a GoPro camera now, so I'll try to take a video or two.

Very nice John and Pete!

I just put the trickle charge on her today. I have a list of the normal stuff to do:

Replace waterpump / impeller
I have four new blue plugs for the headers and block to put in.
Put Prop on
Replace Fuel Seperator
Replace a trailer light
Hook up new fuel pressure sender
and I had just bought a new spare tire mount but even though it says "universal" it doesn't fit on my I beam trailer. Fun Fun.

Then of course my 3 step process to wax it. Hopefully get the list above done on Sunday then the rest when I tow her up to the lake house next weekend. Weather permitting test drive!

Thanks Macklin.. Good luck to you as well. It is a labor of love.. Honestly I enjoy doing most of it. Got everything done yesterday except the water pump and fuel pressure gauge.

Speant over an hour cleaning the bilge. That is one of those jobs I could do without. LOL

She started right up yesterday on the hose... Always a good sign.

Extended forecast is looking good for splashing in this coming weekend!
