We'll have to get together soon and get it out of my trunk!
Can't wait to see the car in person all cleaned up.

During the last week, my starter began to die slowly, I think it developed a bad spot. (I would have to whack it with a hammer and steel rod to get it to crank. And it cranks very, very, very slowly. So I called Bob this morning, and my Dad drove me over (He did not want to take my car due to the starter) to Bobs this afternoon to pick up the starter. I got there, and he let me drive his pristine Grey SDL! It was a great ride, your can really feel that extra cylinder. We had a quick refreshment, Bob gave me a couple of 5 gallon drums for hauling WVO, and then we had to go.
Mad props to Bernard at European connection in Falmouth for giving me a Bosch rebuilt starter, and Bob for getting it for me!
I installed it this evening. It is amazing the difference!! I barly begin to bump the starter and its already running. And it spins sooo quickly!! Its amazing.
THANKS!
