sounds like the tail end of the bell curve is getting just a little bit
higher again :-)

Invasion prep update:

'69 Squareback, last driven just after driving to the 2002 Invasion 
and back.

Did some more work today. Had to overhaul the gas gauge sender to get 
the gas gauge to work. Now that works just fine. I may also take the 
speedo apart to replace its broken needle, but that's for another 
time. Other than that, everything (speedo, gas, clock, radio) on the 
dash now works  

Cleaned out the water drain holes in the bottoms of the doors. 
Important since that car is sitting out in the rain we've been 
having. Yesterday I cut magnetic sheets to cover the louvers so crap 
wouldn't get in there while it was parked.

I had one tire that was thumping, so today I swapped in a different 
wheel/tire. Now it's thump-free.

Thought I'd get started on replacing the muffler, since that's an 
awful job I really hate. Discovered that it was just a few small 
holes and nothing really serious, so most of them are now plugged 
with muffler putty. The last ones need more serious attention which 
I'll do at a friend's place, up on a lift. Should be relatively easy.
