Re: Penny

Oofta, it's been awhile.
Had to retake my last CPA exam this past Monday, so most of my time outside of work was spent studying. I'll find out the results from that in a couple weeks.

Since I don't have to study for at least a couple weeks, I was finally able to get back to work on Penny. Some parts came in last weekend, so I've now got several boxes of parts that need to be installed.

I picked up a new fuel pump today and installed without a problem, but I've still got a misfire and the engine won't stay running unless it has a little throttle input. The battery hasn't enjoyed the cold weather recently either, so it wasn't happy this afternoon and I threw in the towel on Penny with a little daylight left to do some work on Frankentruck.

Maybe I'll work on Penny some tomorrow, but haven't decided yet.

Enjoy some pictures of the fleet
