I've been thrashing lately trying to get everything buttoned up. I've had my car running since late late last year, but I had a ton of stuff to do in order to be road worthy. Well today I finally drove it to work. I had to today because I needed to weld on my passenger seat hinges in order to keep putting everything together. Well everyone at work wondered why it was so dirty.... but apparently they didn't realize that I've had just about everything on the car apart over the past couple weeks and that was my first test drive beyond going around the block.
Anyway I'm back on the road and it's running great! Now I just need to go wash it and put the rest of the interior back together. |

Well I had a couple of more bugs to work out (bad trigger points and a TERRIBLE front wheel bearing), but this past weekend I put about 350 trouble free miles on it! I headed up to Stanwood for a wedding and then since I was in the area, I entered the Edmond's car show on Sunday. My biggest problem of the weekend was that my passenger side sun visor fell off... but if that's my biggest problem I think I'm doing alright!
It's definitely not perfect, but it's sure nice to be able to get some seat time in before the weather gets too crummy. Attached image(s)
