The Sleepy Cruiser (Sparkly Car)

[sleepycruiser]

Got stuck yesterday...too much rain lately...used the TJM recovery kit. Pulled out with the 100.

Minor work today on the 100. Soaked the battery terminals in vinegar for 24 hours as well as the screws etc and cleaned everything up. Also wire brushed the battery bracket and painted it as it had some rust. Added 34mpg.

Modded the windows so that they will roll down without a key in the ignition. 5 minute mod.

Window power without key on made EZ

First thing I did....new steering wheel cover. SOOooooo exiting.

I did the very same, only I got the stitch on kit, and it is a patience testing activity.

Heat is coming....I am thinking about getting the snorkel on soon. @jdayment @Greenbean @tnkayaker Anyone have a hole saw? Anyone want to come watch?

I also need to change out my PHH...I can't even see the stupid thing. I have looked and looked.

Shocks....I have some Tokiko....anyone have experience swapping shocks?

I don't, but I can go get one from HF. I forgot I would need one of those as well.

I've got a rivet gun, manual version, lol...

And I have done my shocks, could help for sure.

I wanna be there when you drill that hole in the fender!

Lets get something on our calendars!

 

[sleepycruiser]

Agreed. What is a date that works for everyone in the next month or so? Saturday or Sunday normally works....Sundays I have soccer normally so that might be an obstacle unless we start in the morning.

 

[jdayment]

Im open after this weekend whenever

 

[sleepycruiser]

I am out of town next weekend but open after that.

 

[Greenbean]

Text me sometime,


I'm still on third shift Sat and Sun PM for now but hoping for a new schedule soon enough.

 

[sleepycruiser]

I could also do a Thursday afternoon probably if that works...as early as 1:30pm or so.

Sats and suns are best for me weekdays are being consumed by meetings lately
