getting the spring time itch to get the car outta the garage and rippin around? Hopefully it won't be much longer and the snow will all melt and it'll be time...
Oh yeah, the itch is itching. Problem is the car is in a lot of pieces right now. I can't wait til it's back together though!
the snow is almost melted, ive got the 'locker all set up, ready to install, subframe connectors are in, life is good!
o.k... i couldnt resist. the roads are dry, the 'stang needed ran, a quickie around the block (i live kind of in the sticks, so around the block was about 6 miles) was the fix i needed!
I *love* the southland! Year-round daily driver, even with a leaky heater box. Sorry... Had to gloat a little. The 80 degree highs and blue skies over the past few days have been nice, though. Y'all Yankees can have your revenge in a couple months when it's 90 degrees/90% humidity here in Mississippi and my little A/C unit is wheezing in futility!
right now its about 22* and while we haven't had snow in awhile the roads are still white with salt (need a good rain to get rid of it) and theres a big snowpile in front of the garage to get my car out I've gotta few plans for mine, but they can all wait til I drive it once, or twice....
I'm getting so eager to drive my pony again I've been shoveling the snow under the dryer duct(outside the house)and doing the wife's laundry just to help it melt
ooooHHH yea!! lol, the other day I got her out, tuned her, timed her, and took her down the mile and back. today, 5" of frickin snow!!!!
I spent about 5 hours last night in the garage, getting it looking good for spring. I just finished up my T5 swap. I have got to drive it a few times and damn is it fun I cant wait for constant nice weather
weather's been farily nice here for several days (weeks really if you don't count the damn sandstorms) and i just got the car back from the alignment shop today so i'm good for serious cruising now, been doing a little here and there cruising but very limited so i don't kill the tires. going down tomorrow to get the exhaust tips installed and i need to change out my ac idler pulley tomorrow as well, after that it's just cruising until someone buys it. of course i actually have to list it for sale first, but i do still have a little detailing stuff i need to get done before i list it though, so maybe i'll at least get a few more weeks of cruising in.
We just got 4 -5 inches of snow dumped on us last night. Good new is it's going to be around 50 degrees next week so all the stuff will melt. Will just need a couple of days of rain to wash the salt away and I'll have the convertible out. Don't think I'll drop the top for a while though.
DAMN, you're on to me... You guessed it, low 8's... SO fast it blew my damn quarter panel and wheel off... And those trunk supports I welded in make the thing handle like a Ferrari!
