Zack's '93 GL

[freshtiva]

New LCA on the driver's side installed. Only took me three days!

Finished the passenger's side LCA

Now on to the inner tie rods. More fun in store.

[Movin]

Those will look hot all color coordinated like that!!

[crazyrog17]

Still haven't done the inner tie rods, I'm going to have to get an alignment anyways so I might just find an independent garage that can both install and align them.

I have put quite a few miles on it though, that trip to Ohiostiva really impressed me. It performed admirably through the hilly terrain and got decent mileage on the freeway (I'm no light foot either). About to roll over 104K, I've put on more than 10K miles since I bought it!

[gergorian]

looking good! you should check out my garage thread. I am hoping on having it running by the time the down river cruise come up. ** Crosses fingers**

[gergorian]

It was good meeting up with ya Zack!

[crazyrog17]

Washed it, picked out all the trash and wiped the dashboard with some turtle protectant. Wish I'd have taken a picture when it was light out

Zack's '93 GL

Got organized today.


Then I did an oil change. Been running synthetic for a few intervals now, went with Mobil 1 0W-30 fuel economy full synthetic and a Bosch Distance+ filter.

Got the whip in good order for the new semester of commuting.

Re: Zack's '93 GL

Jeeze dude

[Festevil3]

I think that is a great way to stay organized

[1990new]

Great way to organize...Save a pocket for miscellaneous part and maintenance receipts (ie. such as from salvage yards, fordfestiva.com. ebay, craigslist, rockauto, etc.)

[jjk1224]

And that's why your going to LTU and im not... lol

[crazyrog17]

Found the organizer in target's dollar section, about a year ago, half off. Bought it but it'd just been kicking around my room. Found it today and figured I'd been meaning to get that all sorted out.

'90new, there are still 3-4 empty pockets, but I've had the car for two years now. Don't know how many more receipts I'll acquire, I could probably use the receipts in there now for warrantied replacements!

Hahaha, JJ. That's not why, get on it son!

[crazyrog17]

Painted my '88-'89 grille


It was red. I used Valspar plastic paint. Lots of thin coats, a scotchbrite pad on the uneven parts and patience.




Now I'm considering painting the trim under the headlights and corner lights. Might use white electrical tape first to see if I like it.

[Prafeston]

I think the the trim under the lights would look pretty good!

Why not the rest of the car? :-)
