What did you do to your E9 today?

[OLD_DTM]

Went to body shop and Tested the new high beam... test fit fiberglass dash ( now making a carbon fiber version), Tested Carbon fiber rear wing and head light covers.

Wait, what am I looking at here?

didn't Scotty use that inner cone when beaming someone up, or down? perhaps THAT is why it looks so familiar. Or perhaps that is what he used to regenerate those precious dilithium crystals. Just a thought. Mike

I had 11 of 47 stripped,repaired and polished pieces of alloy, painted in CERAKOTE, 36 to go, step by step.

It's definitely what it looks like but I couldn't see the whole unit. After closer look it's peeking out back there. I thought it was a turbo themed lamp cover for a momen. Are you going to mount it like that or were you having fun?

Bumper refresh with possibility of new centre section with Cibie 40 fogs. Haven't quite decided yet; plain, old centre section or S/H centre section with yellow fogs.

It will mounted right behind the High beam space... once engine is back in we have to Fab the exhaust manifold.

Is that a "halo" light surrounding the turbo inlet? If so, please describe what you used.

I fitted the new firewall sound-deadening, 3 pieces, looks great, In an ideal world you would fit the two lower pieces PRIOR, to installing the engine ,ahh well plan B can be effective .

Added a Pantera to our weekend cruise ritual, fantastic weather today, temps in the 50's, the cars loved the dense air and the triple Webers were more vocal than usual :

Hmmm, your google images are not showing up for me.

Pulled the radiator and fan to diagnose a very loud squeaky rattling sound. Somehow the fan bolt had come a bit loose and fan was not seated properly. Tightened everything up and all is quiet again...
Also pushed the alternator over a bit to tighten up its belt.

Got to take this beautiful girl out for her first ride in the coupe. Not sure what has taken me so long to make this happen. She absolutely loved it, of course! Lots of requests to "go faster, Dada!"
I am a lucky man.

removed starter...without removing ANYTHING other than solenoid ! Did not think it was possible. But...hell yes! Now I can replace with rebuilt Bosch unit. (full disclosure....weber carbed M30, "special" wrench.) It can be done! Mike

Was some days ago, but got the '67 out to meet some old '02 friends for coffee in downtown Austin. No one had seen this car yet and there were a lot of questions! Ended up driving about 120 miles that day without a hitch. Lots of twisties and hard driving to see how it compared to my low-slung '02. What a ton of fun.

...actually got about 22mpg with all that hot-footing thru the hill country
