Making some good progress on the engine cover.
It may be divine intervention or that I'm just good
but my feeling is that it's ther former.
I painted a layer of Epoxy on the right hand side of the cover
(which was left over from work on the Pro Mod) and had a look
from the back toward the front. Not any really wavy surfaces like I
expected. Light sanding will sort that out.
I keep looking at the big picture and all the hurdles ahead but like
Tom, Doug and everyone advised patience is the key.
Weirdest part of all is that no one else has laid a hand on this project.
Other than the machining of parts it's all me. No one to blame if things go
pear shaped!!!!!.
There's local monthly industrial publication from a nearby area and they
asked if a reporter could pop in for an interview and a few pics etc.
From the time she got out of the car I knew just how the deal would go down.
She was pretty amazed by the size of the liner and asked the normal questions.
Then it came!!!!. Aren't you afraid?. I'm standing there full of sanding dust, haven't showered in days
and my mood hasn't been great of late. The Pro Mod is eating me alive.
I said "look at this car and the work that's gone into it", does this look like something a fearful person would build?.
We live in South Africa and if fear was my thing I'd have 15' fences and barbed wire. This interview is over and you
need to leave. End of story. No wire, electric fences and the would be burglars are street wise. A guy who doesn't have the security
his neighbours do must have something else.
My rant isn't over. Most of my sponsors have given me product but that was all. They don't come around to check on progress.
I asked for promotional material but only my US based backers complied. What would you guys do in this situation?. I don't want the 11th hour Subaru.
Thanks for the motivation and help you all give.
