Did a compression test. Low on #1, but I hadn't adjusted the valves, so there's still hope!

Had the mechanic figure out as to why the left rear wheel has been squeaking. Needs the caliper to be rebuilt and had him check out as to why the shifting has been sucking lately. Maybe something internal, as opposed to external.

Just picked up some beautiful original style seats in black leather from Jerry in Kelso. Can't wait to put them in. Will now sell the Corbeau Classic II's in near new condition.
Im going for the original look. Only a few small things left... |

I expect she is going to look something like this when we're done...

Pulled out of a parking lot and snapped the last bolt on the drivers side CV, CLUNK BANG! The remaining 3 bolts were still in place just unthreaded themselves... ? Found the pins. 3min, an allen wrench and some gloves was all that was needed to limp home. Kinda scary...

Fixed a front suspension clunk and had to make sure it was fixed in the Santa Cruz Mountains.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/img521.imageshack.us-11125-1326077056.1.jpg) Also got my car back after the baby deer collision. So I used a steel bumper this time, and did the Nissan 350Z grille for the radiator. Also popped on some Hella lights for bling. The last thing to do is get my factory headlights back in.

I removed old inner door seals, only to find my black plastic door sills are all warped and broken, gonna order new aluminum ones before I put the new seals in. Also blew number 11 fuse again, not sure what is up with my interior light, haven't been able to get it working, every time I try it blows the fuse.

Checked the tranny fluid level to find it was a quart short. After filling, I went for a drive in hopes that solved my shifting problems. It didn't. Now it's time to drop the engine and tranny for a rebuild on the trannsmission. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
