Hey Green70

Lookin' sweet... glad to see a nice bump from the north valley...

I lived there in Sac for a couple of years... hated every minute of it...
Did manage to graduate from Sac state, then I got my webfooted butt back up here to God's country...

i hear what your sayin kaptnkaos,it does suck here,but look at the bright side,wre only 2 hours away from places that dont suck in any direction!!!!

kaptnkaos - i visited washington about a month ago and it would be a great place to live with lots of bump's. or other fun toys like dirtbikes and quads because of all the land. ( i went to winthrop, vashon island, and seattle ).

Hey G-70,

Yeah, that is true, I'm orginally from Ukiah CA, so I would just head over the hills to beat the heat.
Anyway... man I hope my engine looks that good after I get it pulled, get the exhaust bolts drilled out and retapped, then get her back in.
I really like the the way you have your dizzy and wires run. What kind of loom do you have on there to get the wires to lay like that?
It looks nice and clean. My wires just kinda lay there in stock fashion.
I am looking at converting over to a pointless system in my '68 CS.
I have had the same plugs, points, wires and everything in it for over 10 years, (it's only been driven about 10,000-15,000 miles during that time) think it's time to update??? ]

Gotta get going to work...

Take care,
KaptnKA S

[1971ford]

Hey Green...

Thanks for the link, I added it to my favorites...

yeah.. I know it's a bridge too, but can't remember the name of it.
Sac did have some positive qualities...
Funny, I can't think of any at the moment, but give me a couple of months, I might remember one...

I gotta say, that the American River was a redeeming quailty...
too bad ya have to pay someone, just to get to it...

Thanks again,

KaptnKA S
