Sunday Work Weekend

Work has continued on the new chariot. On Saturday Rod, Brendan, and I continued the stripping of the Miata and work started on the conversion to a Type-D. As part of the stripping several fun parts were pulled and placed on Craiglist. The tally of sold parts now is at $156.02 and 9 bags of Jelly Beans!

The conversion to the Type-D is well on its way. The rear fin is shaping up well.

Work continued on Monday. Sparky and family stopped in for a quick lunch. Sparky and Sparky Jr started the work untangling the electrical system. Early signs are encouraging, but the nagging questions, like "can it start" are still there.

As for the next work weekend, we are looking at this next Sunday, September, 11. It sounds like we will have a good crowd, so I'll see if Z-Chef is up to wiping something up for us. As for tasks there are several goals.
1) Work on D- Continue the conversation to a type-D.
2) More Work on D- Look through the car for any additional stripping opportunities.
3) Chop up Goddie.

Yes, you read that right. As a promise to Z-Chef, it is now time to reduce the amount of lawn art that is around. So, it is time for goddie to be chopped, parts removed, and then removal of the carcass. I will be here all day, so come anytime to help or watch the fun.
