Not yet, expecting parts via DHL today, car is on jacks patently waiting for parts.
I'm just trying to decide whether to remove intake or the water bridge to gain access.
Let me know if you need any help with your repairs.

Just got off the phone... We are confirmed for viewing the Lingenfelter Collection! I will post details when I get home tonight! Posting from a phone sucks!

She's back together, new water bridge and oil filler seals and of course the busted breather hose. Fluids tomorrow, if no leaks I'm there.

I drove the part of your route between Toledo and Cleveland last weekend - in reverse. Nice drive, but it took a little longer than Google thought - by roughly 15-20%. I ended up jumping off at Clague Rd west of Cleveland and taking I-90 the rest of the way.
There was an unmarked detour in Vermillion (I think), but it's a simple left/right/left to get back on track.
BTW it's amazing how many new (and very large) homes there are on the lakeshore. Only thing we can figure is people are buying older homes and tearing them down.

Ok boys (and girls), Here's the deal on the Lingenfelter collection.
I spoke with the curator and he's doesn't have a lot of flexibility on the time on Saturday. So rather than try and hold a 928 event where all the 928's are missing, I told him we would try for another date when we can set the time. I'm sorry if you were "Hell-bent" on seeing the collection. Maybe next time.
So instead, we will do the cars and coffee thing at Milliken's warehouse in Ypsi on Saturday morning. It'll be a nice drive there and back.
If you will be at the Hell cottage Friday Night or early Saturday morning: We will plan on leaving somewhere around 9:00 AM after the cobwebs are mostly gone. We will probably spend an hour and a bit and then get going back to Hell for the cook out and the day's activities.
If you are coming in on Saturday and plan on meeting us at the warehouse: PM me and I will get you the address. I have been asked previously not to post the address on the web and wish to respect their wishes. I can tell you it's generally located near the intersection of Leforge Rd and N Huron River Dr. on the NE corner of the Eastern Michigan University campus. Plan on being there around 9:30AM.

Spoke to Andrew this morning. I think his plan is to leave the cottage at 9:30am, ~30 min drive to Ypsi. Wonder around the warehouse in Ypsi from 10-11 or 11:30, then head back to the cottage and arrive around noon for the BBQ.

FWIW I'm planning to skip Milliken's and show up at the cottage a bit earlier - assuming it's OK with Mark.
