Came back from snowmobiling, left the trailer on and also left the whole
set up at the bottom of the hill, a dead end but easy into the house. The end
of a nice sunny day, clear roads, perfect!
Last night it snowed and I might be stuck down there!!

'93 Turquoise.
No hurry though, as the manifold stud and down pipe have been that way for years!

New windshield, changed oil and filter
Need to replace exhaust manifold (broken down pipe stud), and down pipe (broken down pipe to cat flange).
While at it, need to replace all four struts!

Pieced together an exhaust using what I had left on the parts car. Started working on brake lines but they're rusting bad in several spots so I'll be yanking those off the parts car. Reset the valve timing. It was off by quite a bit. Put the straight white hood that came with the car on. Beat out the top bar so the hood latch lined up again. Tranny fluid change, a good pressure wash and general underbody inspection. It's gonna need some bushings up front and some of the other usual work. Runs good, but needs some tuning. It drove surprisingly well minus no brakes. What a busy day. Hitting it again tomorrow since I'm off work...

Mended the rear defrost, the switch needed to be unplugged and plugged back in, then everything worked fine. Praised the car gods for favorably shining upon me

Cleaned it up. My "new-to-me" Aspire that is!I picked it up yesterday for the brake/suspension swap. For $350, I'm surprised how well it drives.

So far today I have resealed the rear taillight housings to body.
Removed part of the interior to prep for stereo install.
Guees I could get off my rear and go start installing it now. lol

Drove it to Montana.
Car did great. Averaged about 45-51MPG @ 55MPH for 1900 miles.
Only bad thing is my cruise control stopped working just north of Amarillo. I hit the horn switch randomly and the cruise died and horn no longer works.
I don't understand how that would be connected.. Meter fuse (cruise computer wired in with that one) is good and gauges and tach work. Computer fuse on wire harness is good. There are no indicator lights or anything so I'm not even sure where to begin to diagnose an electrical issue with the cruise.
