What did you do to your car today? Vol 2.0

Protip: Bring a jump box to be able to move the seats forward, and if if you have, cordless impact. The rear seat bolts were practically welded on. Great mod that updated the look of my junk.

Also, if your junkyard only allows drills (like mine), cut the plug on the side before the connector (usually easiest from the rear) and use your drill battery. (Also works great to pop unpowered trunks)

Thanks. I would do that, but this is a private sale. All I need to do is drive a few miles, hand over the $$ and load 'em in my car. Win win for me. :)

The only bad part. I will get it fixed in the near future.

Got the fronts installed. Way more comfortable, but sit a bit higher so will take some getting used to.

Found some coin under the old seats.

Ya, sometimes we do get US coins; mostly nickels and dimes, and sometimes the odd quarter. Nobody seems to care so it just gets spent as normal.

I get that when I turn my headlights on manually.
Bleak days causes the sensor to turn them on and off. Not good for HIDs
 
Re: What did you do to your boat today? Vol 2.0

Yep. Accidentally turned them off at dusk and that piped up. I'm so used to auto headlights I do not even think about it anymore anymore.

Re: What did you do to your boat today? Vol 2.0

Think I may have found the GP replacement. Looked at it a couple weeks ago and talked to the owner today. I just need to get the GP ready to be sold.
 
Re: What did you do to your boat today? Vol 2.0

Feels like the past few days my GP hasn't been as peppy. Hopefully nothing is happening.
 
Re: What did you do to your boat today? Vol 2.0

Found a busted sway bar link.
Replacing them made me an hour late to work!
 
Re: What did you do to your boat today? Vol 2.0

Decided to go modified old school and make my Delco 12 cd disk changer work finally (note the monsoon logo, this is the firebird/trans am delco model that works with cd changer. Only one we have stock that will work is the cassette... :/ didn't want to go THAT old school! haha)

And stick it to stingy GM and make the side reflectors that they did away with after 98 finally light up (with leds! :D)

Adding to a very long list of things I need to do a write up on....
 


Re: What did you do to your boat today? Vol 2.0

All my Pontiacs are doing OK, not working on them at all. But at work today I am positioning a 59 Catalina body on a 17 Morrison frame-

Re: What did you do to your boat today? Vol 2.0

I've got a power cord to replace (it's the 3 way extension hanging out of my front bumper that one of the prongs snapped off of... Because everything needs a heater) and it needs a decent wash before the snow arrives...

I've also got to replace my wife's 3 way on her car, because the one it came with started losing the rubber insulation... It's a dealership, that has been in Alaska for 40 years, and they still use parts that aren't made to withstand negative temps. F*cking cheap ass MotherFers.

And she wants me to touch up some scratches on her bumpers. :p Add the required wet sanding and buffing afterwards, and I might as well just buff both cars. In 40° temps.

The joys of living in sub-zero winter. Lol

After 130,000 I thought it might be a good idea to order a new serpentine belt.
I bought the ACDELCO 12576750 so shoot me. I wanted it this weekend so Amazon prime got my business.
