Cool cookie jar!!

"How did the Prelude project turn out?

The Prelude did start and run back in mid June, the second start to test clutch and brakes revealed a fuel leak on one of the new injectors.
We towed it to my Sister and BIL's place, disconnected the battery, covered it and there it sits.

Right at that time several other priorities took over, my Brother ended up in and out of the hospital, twice.
You know how they tell you NOT to smoke while using oxygen and a cannula?
There's very good reasons for that.

We got him moved into a nice brand new ADA compliant apartment where he settled in for several weeks and then he passed away.
I've not had the heart or drive to go tackle the injector seals or anything else on it.



I have recently found the motivation to put some more time into his 83' Interceptor, great news there- after full carb cleaning and tuning she is running well. Still bittersweet...


Gas money tucked away


Long time no start.

I'm sure you will sometime...keep us posted.
(hopefully in a thread of it's own...I almost missed this one.

Back in the day.....don't know if the Shark is still operating. Once in a blue moon it snows there. Less times than when the Pier/Stearn's Wharf burns....
