Morning Friends,B 

B The garage/shop is a mess. B The guy who wrote, "A disassembled car takes up 
three times the space of an assembled one." really understood the process! B 
Actually, I've been quite good at keeping my tools clean and organized but I 
have to admit, the workbenches are now covered with little piles of screws and 
brackets. B Its time for a cleanup and sorting bits into labeled ZipLoc baggies.

With the benches cleared and clean I can get back to repairing wood. B I have 
one corner on the glovebox door left to repair and a number of places on the 
inner facia board to re-cement. B Delaminating plywood layers, just as on the 
door. B There's also a big crack, split really, on the lower edge where 
oversized wood screws were used to reattach the under-dash trim panel. B That 
split too will be glued back together. B Pictures to follow once I get my lazy 
butt up and going this morning.B 

I started on the floorboards yesterday, taking the seats out and vacuuming 
years of dirt, decaying carpet bits and mouse nest debris away. B Of course, a 
couple of the seat rail bolts twisted off but that's okay. They will be 
replaced anyway. B I then decided that I had had enough for the day and didn't 
want to wallow around on the garage floor fighting rusted floorboard nuts and 
bolts. B And that's probably why I left the garage a mess. B Well, that and 
Nancy's reminder that I said I'd help with the spring cleaning. :-o

Retirement is really busy! B I may have to go back to work just to slow down!
