The overdrive is in!



Pete came over on Saturday and we got the borrowed Fairey overdrive installed in about three hours. We took it for a test drive without floors. It screamed like a Banshee. After sound proofing the whiney overdrive is pretty good noise wise and seems ok mechanically as well. We also did some general maintenance (greasing, oils changed, etc...) I found a broken motor mount

I fixed some small wiring Issues on Sunday and Kerry and I went for a drive. That was nice with a stop at the Black Forest Restaurant. I found another motor mount thanks to another Rover Guy. Kenneth said he had two. I said I'd be up for them in the morning. Patrick took Flivver fishing late in the evening I stayed home and fixed up a storage box for the trip.

Picked up the motor mounts Monday Morning. Put them in Monday afternoon with Patrick. Finished looking things over before Patrick went off to harrass prom goers and what it is teenage boys do.(Yea I remember....but I try not to think about it to hard. I'd go insane with worry.) Tomorrow I'll load up some tools and check the Boler over.
