Lets Brag: What have WE all done Automotively this spring of 2007?
I had a productive year cut short by a move cross country. Last fall I had finished painting my Mercedes 300D and was wet sanding it and buffing it out. Over the winter I have done some engine compartment fixes, like ALDA and linkage tuning to give it some pep. I have to finish up some underbody rustproofing.
I rebuilt the Turbo on my SAAB and boosted it to 230 hp and put in a whole new set of springs and struts.
I changed out two windshields.
I drove cross country twice and climbed out in a rainstorm to remount a caliper.
My future motorheading looks ominous.
Out here the houses are almost as close as townhouses and they look like they are made at "Ikea" --they look pretty, but they are not very beefy and do not absorb sound. I would venture to say you could hear an Air Compressor running even if the garage door was closed.
These houses are made for Urban Metros____ ls and not for sloppy messy motorheads who like to poke holes in the wall to run wires and air lines and wipe their hands on the wall or park cars on jackstands a week at a time...( I hope I have not offended anyone)
Also I have a case of Fatigue. Painting the 300D, driving 2x X country and moving twice make my legs feel like wood..
