set of tails"!! what a rip!!
saving grace..The kids car just broke down and they have 4 paper routes...Fluffy
might be busy tonight..!
I am still on the prowl for custom parts, either homemade or aftermarket, and I believe I've found everything I need to make a hot set of tails. This is along the truck light concept, for those of you who have been following that. They've started producing replacement lenses for the snap-together twin lens assemblies for truck fenders in the standard size, which means if I can get going on the fiberglass stuff this summer as I mentioned earlier, I can make my own tail lights (with reverse lights ). They will probably be paint-to-match or black, but don't hold your breath just yet. I'm just updating my finds.
Removed my interior so I can reinstall the many missing pieces that didn't come with the car. Going back to gray plastics and removed the Prelude seats. Need to get a storage container to sort the many different interior bolts, screws and plastic clips and whatnot. I'd like to have every spot filled with the appropriate fastener.
Pulled out the front passenger side of my 26th festiva. The previous owner sold it because they couldn't get the swaybar back on after the accident. I fixed, took it for its first drive. It runs fabulous! It idles perfectly. It's not pulling left or right. It has two brand new front tires. AC needs a charge. I'm stoked!
Found a wasp nest with about 10 wasps at the rear suspension anchor point on the Aspire. Luckily I only got stung once! Now just need to remove the brake lines and it'll be ready for the Festiva.
