The Items from Northern Tool came today...at 7:00PM (CDT)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Yellow Truck is also a little too violent for my liking. Tomorrow I will be checking out the items.

I'm soo pissed off the engine stand is horrible, the paint flakes, the fitment is poor and the thing came in two boxes.  The Engine Stand, oh boy! I didn't open that and I'm actually afraid of what I may find.

I took a part my gauge cluster and cleaned the nicotine out of the crevices. I used an old tooth bursh and a ton of dish soap.  I want an N85 Tachometer for a 1968-1970 B-Body Rallye Dash, if anyone has one please contact me, I can trade for a clock in NOS condition, C.O.D. only.

I disassembled my gauge cluster assembly.

The speedometer may look good in the picture but the truth of the matter is that is is faded and yellowed.

Won a stock sway bar from ebay for $20.50. Now I have a complete suspension and don't have to worry about it anymore.  Here is the pic from the auction.

Today I won a radio of of ebay motors for $850.00.  This is not just any radio but an AM/FM that works!!!  I now have a rare focal piece to put in my car that will definately raise the value of it.  Here are the pics from the auction.

The sway bar arrived today.  It is a rusty thing that will need alot of work to get into the right condition.  The sway bar only came with one bushing bar so I asked the seller to see in he can find one more to go with the bar.  For safe keeping I will attachit to the car.

Today Cadence Marie is 40 years old.  I want to have her running and ready in a year and four months from now.  So June 2010 is it.

 (3/5/2009)

I removed the gas tank from the car.  The gas tank is a total loss, it will get replaced for sure.  The sending unit's only trash but the pigtail wiring for the fuel gage is usable.
