Drive!

The new Battery Tender chargers I got sure do make it so I don't have to worry about the charge running down anymore. Very nice. Gave Lucille a nice hand wash yesterday and took her for a spin today. The turn signals cancelled themselves nicely and the horn ring didn't rattle one bit! Stopped at the Shell station for petrol and cruised over to see Mr. Cooper. No springs, but I had a nice visit.

I took the horn ring off the steering wheel today to figure out how to keep it from vibrating when driving over bumps and I found the reson for the funky way the turn signals cancel... or not. The cam that bumps the springs to release the signal was 180° backwards. I had to pull the steering wheel to reverse the cam, but that was easy. With the cam fixed, I put little strips of rubber from the stash of stuff I'm using for the '49er's door panels under the part of the wheel that the hold part rides over, and over that I used some of the self-adhesive fabric Cooper sold me for the window weatherstrips.
