changed the interior dew strips. only needed one but they sold them as a pair. changed my 3rd brake light to one that was in better shape. bought it and the dew strips for 20 bucks. replaced the bracket that goes on the door panel where the seat belt goes in a few days ago.

trying to drum up cash for front struts and gotta do an oil change. if the weather will agree i might give tinting my windows a shot. i need to pick up my beretta sticker for my windshield some time. i had a buddy that does a little vinyl work on the side cut one for me. it might be a little shorter than the normal ones but for the ultimate cheap whatcha going to do.

Tried to crawl under my parts car to pull fuel vapor breather hose from it, no luck.. not enough room. I managed to melt this hose on my white car.

If ya waited a few more months you could have just bought mine. If the person first in line no longer wanted them.

I charged it. Then I drove it. Nice.

Now, to see if it holds this charge as it has not been lately...

Z26_T i want to modify them myself to fit, and Shane yes I bought the set Cam found in a junk yard on a GA. I'm giving the 1 1/2" primaries a try to see if it benefits my torque curve.

That's a sweet find! What size are your current headers, 1 5/8, or smaller than 1 1/2?

I received an alternator from Rock Auto. New ACDelco, and returned some cheap shock mounts at ORLY and ordered some Moogs that will be here tomorrow. Ideally I can get next Monday requested off tomorrow, then next weekend I can go to town once I get off work Friday. New Water Pump, New Alternator, then hit the rear end stuff. Bilsteins and custom coils.

Many hours of work before I can work...

Absolutely nothing to either of them. Had no power for 2 days either, but all is well now. Colder than hell today too, - something out. Supposed to be above 40 tomorrow. WTH?

It will get used again more tomorrow. I really need to prep the parts and get the front end fixed. Tired of it looking like crap.
