Hi, Angie

I'm glad to see that you finally registered. You've been looking at the site and talking about the folks and the info for years.

I'm going to try to clear a little more of my schedule tomorrow so I can come over early. I want to clean what little oil spots etc there are in the DUKW's hull before the engine goes back in. It will make any future leaks easier to track down.

By the way, I really like the lifting eyes George Dewitt fabricated for the engine when he rebuilt it. They will make getting it in and out a lot easier. If the engine runs as good as it looks right now it'll be a long time before it comes out again though.

See you tomorrow.

And for all you folks who claim dibs or want to be adopted, I tried that years ago and was told to "go to the end of the line"

Lance

P S for dhwife- Amy, your the one who pushed Angie over the edge.... she wanted to see your pics of me dealing with my slipping clutch on the way to Gilbert and couldn't see the pics without registering. Thanks

P P S Alright guys, I normally hate to stop for pics while working but we'll keep a camera handy and maybe Angie will start a thread on installing the engine and the subsequent test drive and swim.

Sometimes I think the green on this site is from MV envy and the green is flowing really thick now. Maybe you shouldn't include some pics - a lot of keyboards would probably short out and the SS site would get too quiet.
