I was going to put the starter in today; however, being the ever Foolish Mechanic, I forgot I'm still awaiting the clutch return spring bracket and clip from Moss. Instead, I pulled the radiator so I can take it to the shop (tomorrow). I could take it today, but it's about an hour there and another back, plus I'd like to swing buy Moss in Petersburg to pick a few additional bits and bobs I now find I need since removing the radiator. Frankly, with a doctor's appointment this afternoon and dinner and a concert tonight (Foreigner), I'm thinking it may just be too much. So instead I'm having a cuppa and writing to you, the Faithful.
Again, it never ceases to amaze me the bodge job a "professional" mechanic is capable of. I think I already discussed the clutch and throttle return springs, but now I find some of the cowl slats are held in place with safety wire. I won't even mention how bad the wiring and mounting job for the flasher/turn signal relay was done. There is plenty of time to put that job right and to bitch about it later.
I'm guessing therre are supposed to be bolts in those holes on radiator cross member brace. ; )
