Quality Time

Hot Flash Wax Job

May 25, 2006 While waiting for some decent driving weather, I was able to spend some “Quality Time” with Ruby. Her exterior looked a bit dull and drab and needed some attention. So, I gave her a bath, rubbed her down with Clay Lube, and applied a coat of color wax to fill in some chips and scratches. I then applied a coat of Mother’s Catawba Wax and finished with a coat of Hot Flash UV High Gloss Paint Polish which removed all streaks and swirl marks for a deep, clean flawless finish. ...

Spring Tasks Completed

Console w new old hazard warning switch

May 3, 2006 Pre driving season tasks (and more) completed: I got a little more than I bargained for after replacing the pinched rear brake lines and installing a new E-brake cable. After a test run, I noticed a psychedelic fluid pattern on the inside of the drivers’ side tire.

But first, a couple of winter highlights: I received a very special Christmas/Birthday gift from my Uncle-in-law from California. He apparently lifted a photo of Ruby off my website picture page and had sheet of postage stamps made (new first-class rate), a very unique gift and quite a surprise. Second. When I bought Ruby about 1½ years ago in C...

Flashback

I added the photo of Ruby

November 4, 2005 I received Ruby’s British Heritage Trust certificate recently, and Boy! was it pricey - $62.50. Either they raised their rates or I happen to request it at a high exchange rate. But, I may add, it was well worth it. It revealed some interesting facts: Built March 26 -28, 1974, dispatched to the USA on April 19, an early 74 chrome bumper model with chrome overriders. It's displayed proudly in my basement workshop. When I was searching to buy a B, I wanted one as original ...
