What did you do to your Car today?

Sweet Rims bro, i always like these kind of rims. Looks awesome on vettes.
 
Today was a busy day. I detailed under the hood, cleaned the throttle body while I was under there, and I washed and waxed it, wiped the interior down, cleaned the windows, and vacuumed it.

Figured out that when lacing the over stitch should be straight, and under stitch angled, makes the leather straighter. Hopefully it works though out all angles and corners.
 


Went to buy an other faulty maf sensor (now i have 3 faulty sensors,one more bad sensor and i burn this car)

And got some color to the engine cover

Thursday I started my CS up for the first time in 6 months. It started up with a flick of a key. After it had been running a while I noticed a massive coolant leak.

This is the oil drive pump. It was leaking. I had to replace that o ring too. I ended up doing a double gasket job on it. And coating it with RTV to prevent future leaking.

This was the old O ring. It was so hard and brittle I had to chip it off with a flat head screw driver and small hammer.

The PCV hose was broken. Not sure if I did it or was already broken. I fixed it with an F-150 PCV hose line.

As of last night I only have a couple more things to do and then she will be running like again.

I replaced everything under the lower intake to everything above the upper intake. Good thing I can do this myself this would cost me about a grand to do at a shop.
 


Got the clear corners put back on. Also installed the led lights I got...I'm glad they didn't cost much because half of them don't work.

FedEx tracking says tails are on truck for delivery today :D:D:D:D

I think I'm going to go to take a part and see what goodies I can find.
 
Went to a auto swap meet today, actually pretty good. - bought a diecast model and a POR 15 Brake caliper paint kit, wrong color, but will swap paint on Monday cause the kits only come in black and red.

What kind of tails did you end up getting Dani? Only asking cause I'm looking for some myself and you've made some damn good decisions to make the white car look fresh.
