bob: I hear you on taking time to regroup, sometimes just gotta sit down and recycle yourself, problem is it now takes longer to recycle than it used to.

Today I think was a good day, I filed my retirement papers at work, oct 10, is last day on the ole bosses payroll. Problem is that I have expensive habits so I gotta still find a part time job. I think I have some stuff lined up.

On to the cobra: first off had to spend an hour working on the wifes bmw z3, the back windscreen needed some fixing.

then cleaned shop for a while, got the car on rolling dollies, and then rolled the body into the shop area. Ground off the casting lines on the steering u-joints and cleaned up nice and got them primed, then ground a few welding splatters off the chassis, then thought I would block sand the body for an hour. the body seems to be fairly straight, of course the little highs and lows near the body seams where they bolted the molds together. got half way around it and so far nothing glaring jumped out. hoping it will only take 3 or 4 block sandings to get it ready for paint. we will see.

total time on car and cleaning shop 3 hours. no money spent today, that is a good thing.
