Installed fresh carpet in the Rampy last week in preparation for Chevy Vette
fest.  It was there over the weekend, so could not do anything further.  Gas
pedal a little sticky.  Probably did not make the hole in the carpet large
enough.  Need to look at that.

Speedo not working.  Guessing it is the torpedo.  If cable, Lon will be
getting an order.  I installed a Spyder dash in Rampy, so when I get to 4th
gear I can judge speed pretty well by the tach.

Gas odor, noticed on the way home from Vette Fest.  Have not isolated it
yet.  Think it is likely a leaky left carb at this point.

Convert is still tucked away off premises, so have not seen it for a while -
like 2 months - since I went over an put a 2 amp charge on it for a few
hours.  It has a clock, so the battery goes down over time.  Maybe I'll do
that again today.  I picked up a couple of battery cut off switches at the
car show - 2 for $5.00.  I'll be installing one of those on the vert.

I always EXPECT spring to arrive the day after St. Patrick's day!  It
usually doesn't, but I still expect it anyway.
