Tried this bourbon based on a recommendation of a colleague while in Amsterdam. Quite good…and this coming from a guy that keeps trying to like bourbon. The picture is from Saint Patrick’s Day at the local eatery. I’m probably committing some sort of bourbon faux pas by having it in an Old Fashioned. Oh well.

Dave Grohl – Storyteller. Pretty good. I generally don’t read these kinds of books but Grohl did a nice job following along his career.
Arcade Legends!
We’ve got an old Ultracade Arcade Legends cabinet that died a few years ago. These are old (2005 is this machines vintage I think) PC based machines with a CRT in a really nice cabinet. When I got it I also got the installation CD, USB stick and the manual.
I couldn’t find those items for the life of me. Looked everywhere… except the place where they were actually filed away….god forbid…even organized.
I think it’s just the hard drive that needs replacing. I’ll see if I can get a solid state stick and use that too get this thing up and running again.

Koi decided to sleep here
She has a range of comfortable beds to sleep in… had to be under the desk.

Why is Safari using the drive that I backup the machine to?
1985 Mustang GT Convertible – A small update
I’ve been looking for parts and pieces for this car for quite some time. I finally found the last bit which was the right rear quarter panel and that was tough to find here in Michigan. I had to travel to a place near Joliet, IL one weekend to grab the piece. Same color car! I would have loved to find a NOS part but that was not in the cards.
I also found a front nose piece in Ohio. Another weekend day used to get that.. Finding a nice part WITH the light bar again, took some time to get sorted and sourced. The light bar seems to be removed from most nose pieces
The next bit of work will be separating the body panel from frame bits but first cutting off the frame parts and the separating the panel from the remnants. That should be interesting since I’ll be doing from ‘inside’ the body panel.
Lastly, I also dug around and found the frame measurements for a 1985 Mustang Convertible. If you need the information I have a picture below and if you want the book it come from look for the 1985 Car Shop manual, Volume B2, page 47-04-19.

The second image appears to be the front end measures around the engine bay for a 1990 Mustang Hatch. I’ll keep looking for 1 985 Convertible values.

Book List from Amazon
This is a list of books on Amazon where I’ve been stacking up things for years. Going to start reducing my spend with Amazon and because of that I’m going to give ‘Libby’ the library app a shot, see how it works out and see if I can knock a few of these off the list.
