Cold weekend; little accomplished
So it was chilly this weekend. My one repair project met with minimal success. The exhaust has some small holes, I thought I could patch them with some muffler tape...No such luck. After curing overnight, the test drive today burned right through the patch. The LandShark will just be loud until I order a muffler. On the plus side, I created a long and seemingly daunting list of things to do. http://jacknsundrop.tadalist.com/lists/1156806/public. Hopefully, I can roll through them pretty quickly. The only real excitement, other than how much fun the LandShark is to drive, is when my hood latch let go somewhere past 85 mph. Fortunately these old BMW hoods are hinged in the front, so it did not fly up and block my view. The speedometer only goes up to 85 as well, so it's hard to say how fast I was going. The long drive did wonders for my clutch and transmission. Shifting was much smoother on the return trip. I should have taken a picture.
