Painted and installed new hood hinges. Old ones were bent up from the wreck and the hood was resting on the cowl. Installed hood. I reshaped it a bit last week. It looks bad and doesn't quite fit right but it will do until I find a good red hood.
Put my bumper cover on. Doesn't quite fit right either because the metal bumper is bent. Just temporary until I pick up a new metal bumper core and a cover.

Did this to my friend's 2-door at my garage(I'm the one taking care of it for now):
1. Installed the brand new lamp license light and the lower smooth spoiler.
2. Removed the tint at the rear.
3. Wash the car.
4. Go to my bet car upholstery shop to inquire replacement of ceiling and sidings and making a seatcover.

Started Farmstiva up after too long a winter.
Hit Pick N Pull and got my hands on a back cargo cover and a Mazda 323 clock. Looked at the new paint job from last fall (before it got too cold) thinking that maybe this weekend upcoming I can wet sand and finish the yellow striping. Plus paint a couple of areas I missed with the new green paint.
Thinking seriously of going back tomorrow somehow after or during work to get the intermittent wiper control I saw on that 323. Also, going to go back to get that cup holder I saw..

Changed oil and filter. Installed new rear tranny mount. from Daves discount parts
on line, a great place, pulled apart rack and serviced. Replaced strut and set
front end the way it will remain.
Should I order red hydraulic plastic hose spiral wrap to put on the coil over??
I think it would look cool.
The front is where I want it, Makes my 13 snows look like kart tires!
should I raise the back more? the car looks level but ? It kinda looked
alright before higher in the back. Should I move the tires toward the back
in the rear?? The front tires are moved to the front about 1/2 inch and the
front is 2 inches wider...maybe I should get 1 inch spacers for the rear?
Almost time to order the new tires!!
