WEEKEND 11 - 3/3/2001

We decided that this weekend would be used to finish up some of the smaller item that we had out-standing. We started cleaning the rest of the parts that we have slated for fresh coats of paint. This includes Valve Covers, Oil Pan, Engine Mounts, Transmission Cross Member, Air Filter Case, and a couple of other things. We also started helping Neil's Dad get his 89 XJ ready to go Wheeling with us in the Spring. He have to get a new coat of paint on it then we're going to install a 4-or-so inch lift kit on it. So that's about all we did. The frame is now ready to have the new springs installed etc. Hopefully that will be real soon.

{short description of image} Sorry for the bad images on a few of these. The flash form the camera reflected off of the suspended dust particles and made the image quite spotty.
