    Only 25° up here near Niagara Falls today. A little tip with the fuel stabilizer, run the vehicle a little while after dumping it in. You want the sta-bil to reach the carb. Help keep it from getting gummed up.

    Turning that Fury into a drag car😮 I'm kind of liking that find you an 426 or a 440 big block or even so much as the new style Hemi retrofitting new style engine to that is a lot of work..... I am a traditionalist I'd go find me a 440 build the heck out of it throw me an 871 blower on it and a 20 lb bottle of nitrous?? Drag car also pulling that big block out of that camper truck and rebuilding it looking forward to that back in the day we used to call a build like that an industrial build or a motorhome build or a dump truck build all indicating various levels of torque and durability which is obviously what you want with that camper truck lots of miles equals lots of smiles just got to make sure they're true and dependable😂 thoroughly enjoy your channel guys it's so fun hanging out with you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

    When cranking the coil gets 12 volts through from the starter solenoid for easier starting . After releasing the key to the run position the coil only receives 7 volts to prevents points from burning up. When the HEI ignitions came around this wiring arrangement was no longer used. I would check that you have 12 volts when cranking at the solenoid on I think the Terminal mark red “I”. It might be to one marked “R”. Either way it’s one of the small terminals on the solenoid. If not replace the solenoid. It has to be one with 2 small terminals not just one. Also wiring should be changed to provide 12 volts to coil when the key is in run position because the output will be much higher thereby creating a hotter spark

    P.S. a cheap easy way to keep cover from sagging is a big Exercise ball and put it on the edge and cover just keep in mind don’t leave any sags where I can get down and make a puddle I replace many of floors in these boats they go for cheap on the floor is bad and it’s very doable to fix them but it’s expensive and time consuming

    For your Snow & Surf day go to the area around Malibu as a base of operations.
    I was stationed at El Toro. A few of us would take days trips of white water rafting in the morning, go up to the Big Bear Lake area to play in the snow. In the afternoon we went to our favorite beach, Crescent Bay Beach. To wind up the day we would go up to Griffith Park and catch the Laser Light show.
    Something to think about.

    I use the Sta-Bil in my riding mower. I use it once or twice during the cutting season. I then add it to the last fill up and run the mower for a few minutes to make sure it gets in the carb!! I know it's a lot colder in Ohio. Good to see you all taking good care of everything.

    Quick suggestion for your boat cover. 3" PVC stand with 4 way cross as a base, maybe 12" on each side and similar but shorter for the top to prevent tearing. Might do the trick and be light weight to allow water to drain off "tent". Merry Christmas and HNY!

    On Garfield you need a second wire on the HEI distributor going to the r post on the starter solenoid when the ignition switch is turned to momentary on or the start position? It turns off the ignition side of the electrical system but when the starter kicks the solenoid it activates the r post on the starter solenoid. That's what will start the car and then when you let off momentary on on the ignition switch it runs on the ignition side I think. Try it

    Add an alternator with a vacuum pump & coolant reservoir to to the Luv.
    With Garfield, is the airbag control system hooked up to permanent live or keyed? The bluetooth for that might be causing your power draw.
    You need a barn in the back yard for covered storage.

    The Luv and C30 Camper are probably my pics from the lot, although the grand touring Merc Wagon sounds interesting. Since you are getting into tractors more and more, you might consider a run up to the HIstorical Construction Equipment Association show next September 18-20, in Bowling Green, Ohio. There's all sorts of antique machinery, and as much of it running as they can keep operators on. Let me know if you want more info.

    The Fury is cool, as long as it says Mopar powered. I wonder if the turbo from a PT Cruiser would be a good fit for the Izuzu. They're pretty small, so throttle response shouldn't be too bad. The turbos were made by Mitzubishi, and can be found pretty cheap on ebay.
