......to throw money at the 80.
It's been running a bit sluggish lately and just generally needs some TLC.
I cracked my exhaust, it's not terrible but this likely accounts for some sluggishness and slightly lower mpg. I may go see Henry, but I really really like that EMS Powered cat-back over the frame system - looks awesome.
New u-joints arrive this week.
Need an alignment asap.
Oil leaks, nothing terrible but they bother me. I may try switching to a dino oil to see if they subside a bit.
I'd love to do the remaining control arm/panhard bushings as well.
I'd kiss Santa's feet if he brought me a new windshield! Mine is not cracked, but the zillion little rock nicks make it seem like driving through a prism on sunny days. O and I have a nice leak in these heavy rains.
If this damn pinging would go away from 1200-1600rpm, that'd be awesome.
Must. Get. Sliders.
It's funny, this thing is just shy of being 15 years off the assembly line, has 230k miles, I drive it every day (I love driving it every day!). None of this stuff is serious! and considering the mileage and use, this is not at all bad. I was surfing CL today looking for a beater car and thought, I need to put money into the 80 anyway, a beater is just more coin on top of that and doesn't make much sense. So the 80 can get some lovin' and keep on chugging.........
