ya no kidding. it was colder and we had more snow here for easter then we did for Xmas.

and yet in the uk we are baking in temps heading for mid 20C's. Friends just texted from her caravan on the scottish border and the local river has dried up.

GutterPunk · Apr 10, 2007, 09:33 PM

we got snow too

Pretty nice weather here, another record breaking warm month is on the way.

I think there has been like 7 or 8 months in a row here in Denmark with the highest avg. temp ever recorded for each month.

one theory stated that in the near future, the equator will be a solid ring of ice, and the icecaps will be tropical paradise..

Dark Lord · Apr 11, 2007, 12:17 PM

well in 100 years i should have some prime tropical property. this will be like hte new florida here.

Judas · Apr 11, 2007, 12:22 PM

actually the forcast said it would be in even possibly our fathers lifetime.... within the next 50 or less years.. )

pretty interesting theory though.

Guyver2K5 · Apr 11, 2007, 12:26 PM

Dark Lord · Apr 11, 2007, 12:32 PM

ya, i was hopeing to get the vette out too this weekend. dont think thats happening.

maybe next week i can start gutting it.

Well the car hasn't been driven for nearly 2 years now (not good) and the battery in it was unhooked and fully charged before it was left. So an unhooked battery, stored inside a heated shop, should last 2 years and fire something up without a hitch, however the thing was stone cold and all it was doing was holding a voltage charge, but produceing zero amps pretty much.

So i gotta get a battery for it, i'll wash it very well, and then run it for a few hundred kilometers, change the oil and fuilds in it, do a full maintence workup on it. Do a thorough checkover, and just maybe, if funds are available after fixing up my house more, see if i can get a turbo that'll fit the sucker.

What would be really nice to do, is turn the sucker into a King Cobra II, that little 302 is probably the highest power producing 302 without having to do major modifications to it.

Orginally the car had a stock 2 barrel carb 302. We put a full bore battleship on it, replaced the cam with a high output one that keeps the values open a little longer (runs rough idling, but boy it has juice when it's opened up), 4 barrel carb on it atm (may stick a 6 barrel setup on it).

Interior needs a little bit of work, and needs a air conditioner unit installed.....

boy that thing rocks though.

Judas · Apr 11, 2007, 01:00 PM
