Saving Granddad's Falcon

It was hard to say too, relatively speaking.

Ok, need a little muffler advice.
The place I bought my muffler from online finally sent me one that seems to fit.
Do I need to put any kind of sealer in-between the pipes before I put the clamps on?

[Jeff W]

No sealer.

Thanks Jeff!

Whew....back from two weeks of work trips and a 14 hour flight. Can't wait to get back to the falcon tomorrow (if I can stay awake.)

We still on for this Saturday for startup Roger?
All your stuff is right where you left it.

Kenny and anyone else able to join us?

I hope this week to get the muffler on, and at least have the brake lines bent...(probably leaving the flaring for Saturday.)

That's the plan as of today, Don. Probably leave home about 8 and be there between 9 and 9:30. Hopefully no other illnesses or engine issues keep that engine from roaring to life.

Sounds good Roger...anyone else able to join us?

I will send good thoughts and a warm breeze from Hawaii

Spring break! Yeah!

It's supposed to be 80 degrees on Thursday. That's too hot for April if you ask me.

I like that it will be a little overcast, maybe even a slight sprinkle, on Saturday. My allergies have been so brutal the past 5 days and as of today I have lost my voice - the meds to clear my sinus's have killed my throat. Makes it tough to do phone support at work.

Don,

Hmm... Not sure where the club will be on Saturday - seems they've all decided to take vacation. No vacation for me so I'll be there and will do my bestest to move things forward. Thankfully this allergy thing is starting to fade. Has been a rough few days up until just yesterday when I started feeling a bit more normal (term used loosely). It wouldn't have kept me away, but I'm tired of people feeling sorry for me.



If anyone else is out there and wants to work on a very sweet Falcon, please ring-in. I'm sure Don would love to participate in all our future fun, with a car, sooner rather than later. Every hand helps towards this goal.

Thanks-

where is this party at? I might be able to sneak away, and I think I owe Don a bit for helping me put my delivery together.

[Luva65wagon]

Don lives in Federal Way. He can ring-in with address PM. I'm sure he'd be happy to have you there helping.

Sorry, just saw this post! I should be able to come down this Saturday. I may not be there until 10:00 and need to take off about 4 or 4:30 latest. Should be able to knock a few things off the to-do list though!

[dhbfaster]

Roger and Kenny - Awesome! Donuts will be there.

If anyone else wants to join us let us PM me. To those of you un-names on vacations and galavanting around other parts of the country...I know you will be there in spirit and we'll get out an update so you can check in.

I did get the muffler "on" last night. It seems to be a slightly crooked though...haven't completely figured that out yet...hope I can solve it with the bracket or something else.

Front tie bar business...2nd set doesn't fit! I'll show you in the morning Roger.

Roger and Kenny look forward to seeing you in the AM

Hello, Don.

I like your little 144 ThriftPower Six and am looking forward to hearing that you guys have brought it back to life,

Dennis in Tampa.
