OK here it is sitting on it's own two feet.......I drove the Yelot for the first time in about 45 days today.....You are right Windy I like it....A little bit more bleeding of the brakes and some Mike Wade homemade shims to make the tires stand up right and we will be good to go.....

325 lbs springs and I love the ride.....

Lyle we are always looking for Jaguars or parts...There is one in Austin TX right now for a 100 bucks but it is pretty rough.....This one came out of Kingman AZ a while back...Are you coming this way right now?.......

[IdahoRelic]

No, we are NOT. Just realized the Jag rears you are coming by for you projects. Sending you a PM.

I'm liking this more and more........sitting on the ground and driving around today with the temp at around 35 degrees......Cold BUT my grin was big.....even Peggy Sue liked the ride......

I never did like a Cadillac but I will tell you it rides like a Lincoln............At one time I owned 13 Lincolns so I know how they ride....Before my little Angel told me that was enough.........LOL.............

13 Lincolns!!! I am impressed! Hopefully they were all early '60's convertibles, with suicide doors!

[winfield scott]

I see you even had it chromed

[mike wade]

Well Windy it was chromed when I got it but the chrome is pretty old and not the best in the world but it will work for awhile.......then I may have it powered coated......I hope all is OK with you arrival back in the states.....

Bill I did have some '65s.......1 Convert & 3 sedans....3 ea 1971 Mark III's...1 ea 1970 Mark III....1 ea '75 Mark IIII...1 ea '78... 2 ea 79 all Mark 5's.....Damn there was another one there somewhere but I just don't member right now,,,,,,,,Would you believe I don't own one at all right now....

I don't think the new ones hold a candle to the old ones . . . just my opinion
