Just bought my first car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Hopefully the weather gets better so i can drive. Makes it difficult with this humidity when the heat and defrost don't work. Looks like previous owner removed the heat lever and covered it with carpet.

You're local, nice! That would be great. Maybe spring if we're lucky (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) or before 5pm when the fog settles in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) I put in a temporary rubber seal from home depot and filled that spacing just to keep it a little cozier in the cockpit. The top doesn't leak anywhere thankfully though. I had to drive in heavy rain from the shipping depot when my car first arrived from California (by transporter). That was traumatic for me, and probably the car. In addition to the interior, I'm not certain either trunk is sealed properly. Also my car lacks the rain catcher that's supposed to be under the engine grill. Plus no defogger and one wiper not bolted on tightly enough since the car wasn't being used in the rain. I will use the Miata or the family car on days like today. Who did you get to look at your ignition problem? John Walker refused to have anything to do with my Dellortos. Gerber Motorsports did some repairs, but refused to touch the Type IV motor. Chris's German had four 914s in progress (plus a 356, some 911s, and a 928 parked outside) when I visited them. But he's booked for a month or more. Tomorrow I'm driving down to Franklin's VW Werks in Kent. I'd rather not drive so far in the rain if it's avoidable. Check out alki auto repair. Their new location is 2938 SW Avalon Way right next to Luna Cafe. They work on older cars. What are you trying to get fixed? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) whats the last four numbers in the VIN number ?? 1730 by any chance.. No sorry (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |
