The car is at the shop for exhaust, hoping he would have some space to work on it every once in awhile. Not going to happen, but beside that, I got this message this morning: "I tried to move your car this morning and the clutch pedal went all the way to the floor. I don’t know if the cable came loose (I thought the T56 used a hydraulic system), but that is what it felt like."

Oh, great, I thought, my homemade "adjustable" clutch MC rod broke. I told him I'd be over to take a look at it (already had the panel installed, so he couldn't look at it.

Got over there, dropped the panel, and confirmed the 2nd thought that came to my mind - I lost the clip for the pedal pin, and the rod finally worked its way off. Ran to the dealer (in stock, $2.53), went back to put it on (which it fought every step of the way), have a clutch again.

I'm going to have to pick it back up because he doesn't have any room on his schedule until May 10th. Oh, well, delayed gratification builds character . . .

 

at least it was simple to fix. i have waited more than two months for a specific exhaust shop to work on my stuff. well worth the wait.
