herniated disk is no fun. at least you have the proper setup for making the work easy on the back with all those pulleys.

I bought a 1991 camaro in 2001 for about $400 that was wrecked and had a lot of fun ressurecting it but sold it in 2005 for the wrong reasons, (Nearly got involved in a major highway crash that I thought I caused (turned out I didn't) that put me off and scared me to death).
Anyway it went to its caring new owner and I've got the chance to buy it back

May cause a divorce and the slowing down of this project, but its loads of fun!

Personally I'd pass, and save the money for the current project.

definitely back-burner that idea for a while if it'll cause household drama. Don't need that hassle with medical issues going on as well.

Hi Andy Fanshawe

Well I dragged my Marauder out of winter storage last week, think there is any chance of a trip north for it this year?

Bump!!!

Hi all.
Just to keep you informed that progress is nil due to my prolapsed disc not really improving and waiting for physio to start to give me a chance.
I've been signed off work for 2 weeks but can't do much obviously.

My only chnace of completing the underside work on this car is to design and make a rotisserie that is attached to the ceiling joists and not the floor. In fact, there is so much to do under there, I don't think I would be happy doing it even in my 20's or 30's anyway!!

So, design is under way and I will post up pictures as it progresses. Be warned though, this will be sloooow 'cos my back and leg hurts! I've not actually sat down for 8 weeks now - cos I can't! Driving is darn near impossible.

Keep you all informed.
Andy.

How ya feeling, Andy? Hope all is going well for you.

[andyfanshawe]

Okay, I'm back. Well sort of!
My prolapsed disc is improving but I am still having to take it steady. Lost confidence I think they call it.

Anyway, onwards with the engine fire up wiring and plumbing etc.

Bought a new coil and redesigned the mount and placed it here





Front rad panel replaced temporarily



Oh, forgot. Stripped and repainted the valve covers, even going to the extent of cutting out and rewelding in the internal baffle to make sure all the old oily residue/carbon is removed







I am going to temporarily fit these horrible things





and try to fit the fuel tank on the frame to enable the fire up.

I'll struggle along the best I can but without compromising my improving back.
Keep you all informed guys.
Andy.
