While Tyler was out test driving Hooch, We backed Eeyore into the garage. Hooch's spot was still warm!  bugey--

Up on stands & right to work replacing the split & corroded battery cable (10' long running from under the passenger's seat back to the starter).



What a joy that was. Had to remove the starter just to get the nut for the cable off.

Thanks to Mark & his nimble fingers for getting up in there to get this job done.



We installed the necessary cables to ad a starter relay, if the need arises.

While he was buttoning up the starter I installed a second deep-cycle battery which more than doubled my power storage capacity.

Tracy came out this evening and helped install the snaps for the windshield curtain that we've been hanging up with safety pins and bits of elastic for the last 3 years.

Tomorrow we clean her up and load for GGB8

Tested the speed & readiness of my Emergency Response Team...





I thought the response time was good...

She said it would have been much faster but the tears from laughing were blurring her vision  #banghead
