O and I got that 1/4 inch from taking out the top lock, I was already maxed out, so removing the top lock and bottoming the adjuster out on the sleeve will hopefully put the back in a good spot...

It came up a tad after I took out all the trunk guts.

 

Finally finished my front bumper... which concludes my summer wrap project.


Can't believe this was 4 months ago...

 

Any plans to finish the sides?

 

Not at the moment - this was the original vision. But after completing the front-end over the weekend, I got the craving to just go ahead and wrap them.

 

 

Can't argue with the Labeouf.

 

Yeah so I didn't wrap anything or put shiny 150mil turbos on or built my own CF wheels or anything awesome like that...

But I changed the oil and filter and swapped out the city light bulbs for leds, and found something missing.
There's no rust under there! At all! Where is my structural integrity now? Bear in mind I live north of the wall where polar bears eat children all year round (not really, but ish) and if things around here aren't made up of 50% rust they are probably made of plastic.

Thank you old man in Belgium who owned this car before me for rust proofing the undercarriage 3 times in the 5 years you had the car! Even though you didn't drive it during your mild belgian winter!

Sometimes you just love old people with money and an obcession! Most of the time you hate them, but sometimes..!!

 

Don't be jealous that you don't have any rust to clean up. It is super fun but I'm sure you can find other things that require your attention.

In for pictures of Swedish ladies... In, out, or around the car. Under would be cool also, or not even around a car.

Dont be like your European counterpart who linked pics of his naked wife though, unless your ok with everyone thoroughly enjoying them. (He did not seem ok with it)

 

I guess it's time to order more wrap!

Thanks Shia lol

 

I can Garantie im not a bit jealous of your rust issues. I am, however, very jealous of your fresh seafood!!! That's the trade off unfortunately. Salt air also means salt water. I have low humidity and green chili's here in Colorado. But damn I miss my gulf air smell and fresh shrimp.

 

Ill trade you your mountains for my flat, grumpy and wet hot Florida. As long as I keep daytona, sebring, pbir and homestead raceway.

 

Ill take some legal marijuana gummy candy, that seems like it would make some crappie times into less crappie times...

Its raining today so no work on the car, I did however score this new vice for $8 using surprise points from Sears and a $70 off sale...

Had to beef up my diy work table it should do the trick.





And I dont like seafood, I got a little food poisoning from a seafood salad in like 2004 and have avoided anything from the sea as much as possible since.

 

Damn!!! Nice deal.

I don't smoke. Lol. It's been years, but yeah.... it's everywhere here.

 

Should've mounted your vice the other way, bro. That way you can continue to spin the adjuster without having to slide it to the other side haha

 

looks like the base swivels to me

 

@ travlee

 

380RS Pedal. I've been working on my heel-toe, and while I can do it with the OEM pedal - I would miss the pedal sometimes. So I figured for $40, why not just get the 380RS. Haven't driven with it yet, I did sit in the seat and attempt to heel-toe though and it was so much easier. Also, super simple swap... would recommend this to other owners.

 

 

Yesterday, but, replaced the window motor and ordered a oil pressure sending unit to put on this week. Getting the dings removed tomorrow and prepping it for the seller who's arriving in October.

 

O you mean like this



Yeah it has 360° of swivel so I mounted it at the edge so I could use it eather way at the end of the table... I took the pic like that so everyone wouldn't see all my other junk...

Anywho I cleaned up my washers on my new vice and painted them flat black... They are on the screwdriver as the after..

This is the before.




Cleaned up the bolts too... It looked like the poopoo, now much improved.
