Dear Mother & Daddy,
The chair cover arrived, & I'm
still trying to figure out how it will
look with the sponge rubber in it.
At first fit, it looks okay, but I want
to mess around with it before I
make up my mind.
Jim has been stealing time, here
& there to go over the red Merc. So far
he has replaced the u-joints which
were ready to go any minute, and
has disconnected one side of the
double fuel pump, where most of
the oil was going. As soon as he can
find a good used pump, he'll replace
it. Jim gets a lot of good
used parts free, because people
very often insist on replacing
perfectly good parts, either from
habit, or for reasons that have no
bases in fact. The brakes are good,
but the master cylinder will need
a hit because it leaks fluid back
to the wheels. He fixed the radio
with a new vibrator. The tappets | 1Jan 20, 1960
