Matt Drayer's Journal

There's a certain satisfaction that one feels when you know you were right about something -- even when that something is a tedious, filthy job like overhauling the rear end of a tedious, filthy Little British Car.

Yes, it's true, we've gone into the abyss of the rear end. As with the front end, it quickly became obvious that it was a complete teardown and buildup. The realization that replacement parts would need to be both ordered and sourced, and the fact that our project timeline is stretching because of it, is disappointing.

But the desire to hear that engine rev and feel that wind in our hair trumps the frustration of not being able to rev the engine and feel the wind just yet -- we'll get there soon enough, as long as we keep going.
