Tucker starts soccer tomorrow, and, being the great father that I am, I won't let him arrive in a minivan.  So, it looks like I'll be getting my toe-in fixed tonight.  Anyone who wants to stop by between 8:15-10, feel free.

before adjusting it was about 3".  I lacked the time to get it perfect so I eyeballed it.  I think I went a smidge too far and it wandered a bit on the road.  I'll adjust it back in a turn and see how it does.

You should shoot for 1/4" toe in (1/4" less in front than back).

I actually did something today though I'll admit it wasn't much.
I have a friend in Atlanta that researches and does big dollar restos.
Were talking down to the crayon marks during assembly kind of stuff.
We spoke about what to do with an uncut 66 U-13 roadster that is now safely in out of the rain and sleeping happily in it's new stall over here. Next step is taking pictures. As soon as someone coughs up a title I may be able to get started on a couple of significant things.

I installed a windshield wiper motor, checked all of the brakes and reinstalled all the tires getting it back rolling, I re adjusted the driver door and unbolted the top to start getting it ready to rebuild.  I have the title, when someone coughs up my missing transfer case and c4 adapter :D

I seem to remember someone saying that they didn't "want to bother picking a transfer case and c-4 adapter up tonight" but hey progress is progress.

ordered the wrong stinking shocks...Eye bushings are too small.  Either need to drill them out, HUGE PITA, or send em back and order the larger bushings.

well, the shocks still required some work to get them to fit.  The top bushing had to be removed as it was too small to fit on the shock mount.  The results were looser than I expected, but I don't see it being a problem.  The bottom bushing had to be ground down to fit inside the lower shock mount.  Took about 30 minutes of work to install both sides, but the jump up and down on the bumper test shows that they will work.
