• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

What did you do to your Car today?

Finally got to replace the 2 passenger rear cradle mounts on my Bonneville. What fun! Good thing is now the GP can take a rest while I drive the Bonne again. danielle15, I feel your pain, lol... My 2 rear tires are shot as well thanks to dead struts. That's next on the list after I recover from the cost of the bushings for the Bonne. With the wife loosing her job sooner or later (thanks US Cellular) we've had to prioritize things a bit more than usual to get ready for it.
 
I went to my aunt's house for Thanksgiving dinner yesterday. My aunt, my uncle, and one of my cousins all mentioned how dirty my car was and that they had never seen it that dirty.

I was going to wash it today but the weather was crappy so I let mother nature wash her off.

Yeah, I got my hours cut at work so as if things weren't hard enough before...they are worse now. I know it needs attention, its just expensive things that I can't afford right now. Rotating them has kept them even and fine for 2 years, so it'll keep working I hope.
Car is getting to the point to start needing parts and such. Once I get caught up and back on my feet, the car can get more attention I hope.
 
Replaced the EGR after the P1404 and P0404 errors kept coming up. The old one looked pretty dirty compared to the junkyard one, so hopefully its fixed.

Ok this is not working - it seems that the red is the base color
here are the results and look at the light in some pics to see where the color can come off and where it wont.
Going to try sand paper next.
