A post a day......

[BlackVert]

My weekend plans ... I am hoping to get the lower half of the Fairlane's back seat re-covered. If successful, then I will be done with the seats and can go on to other interior stuff. I'll post pics if I have anything to report.

That and watching the Caps game against the Red Wings are my main priorities.

Got my transmission built and interior back together. Now to install the trans and get the car back on the road.

Transmission installed last night and drove 170 miles today. Gonna beat on it all day tomorrow on the road course then drive it home.

how'd the road racing go Mike?

 

[1slow95]

It went great and the car made it home in one piece. Total of 500 miles for the weekend with about 90 miles on track. These T-5's must overheat easy because it kept getting louder the longer I stayed on track and whined pretty bad at the end of each session. After it cooled down it's quiet again.

I beat my fastest recorded time from when I had the 420w in it by .3 seconds for a 1:21.2 lap. I ran some stopwatch timed laps in the 1:20-1:19 range so I know I'm a few seconds slower, but not that much for losing 200rwhp. I was able to hang with a GT3 for a couple turns, but he left me in the straights. Spun out once but didn't go off track. I'll have some videos up later this week.

Well my vacation is coming to an end, and it's on to another house project. Don't stop until you hit the bottom of the rot.

Drivers side headlight bulb went out, so I replaced both today with sylvania 9007 ultras

Also the passenger side amber corner light is out, but the turn signal works. Not finding a ton of info on replacing the corner light, do people just buy new corner lights when the bulb goes out or something?

 

[99FiveOh]

No, they loosen the 11mm nut on the inside and pull the entire lens out thus exposing the light bulb.

I believe that I will brew 2 batches of beer, 1 batch of belgian trippel at 9% abv, and the other a holiday ale at 8.5% abv. Should be great!

You selling any? I love trippel.

[Mustang95GTS]

Cannot sell any (against the law) but I have done some horse trading in the past for favors (parts/work/etc)

This will be my first time making trippel, however I have made over 15 batches of beer and non have turned out bad, and most of them I would make a second time becuase they were that good!

[revhead347]

Well, if anything I have that you want comes up, I always take beer in trade.

[Mustang95GTS]

Indiana, we are actually doing a holiday brew party next weekend, I think we will have about 11 different home brews.

 

[revhead347]

Yeah, my wife has been blowing my beer budget at the dentist. Nothing kills house work soreness like beer, but I had to drink Steele Reserve last week, because it's all I could afford.

[BlownFiveLiter]

Yeah, we let this thread die again...

What's going on fellas? Haven't been around much lately, with work, college, trying to get my own site going (and failing ), trying to find a new job, and getting some money saved for the baby that I now have on the way! How's life treating 94-95 these days?

 

[smilts]

finaly got almost all the wiring in my mustang hid. got it all put back together except for splash guards. then stared at my 1960 chevy stepside for a hour wishing i had the money to continue body work on it right now. but i dont and that was my day.

Blackvert has got me redoing my garage again (the Garage Remodel thread). I did a remodel back in 2005 after I finished installing the 347 in the 94. Now I've ripped out the carpet and getting it ready for 55MIL thick Burgandy PVC floor covering. I'm trying to convince the wife in also buying me a shed for the backyard to get all the lawn equipment out of there (I don't even cut my lawn due to neck surgery). I'm throwing a bunch of crap away tonight.
