• 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?

Sounds pretty decent. Might be the lowest price you can find. Reputable shop?

Reputable but not best in town. Maybe top three out of about 15 local shops. Theyve done the paint repair for my dads vehicle and my moms.

I priced it another shop amd thye said $2000. I kinda just walked away lol.
 


drove to a tire shop to have my tires dismounted off the new to me rims.

then washed said rims and washed car.
I need to touchup white paint.
 
Got the heads rebuilt and picked them up today. They look really good.

213k miles on a water pump,

But then again it does look like crap lol

and i believe my water pump was also the factor that made a ton of engine noise, listen to them bearings..
 
I changed my oil and painted my front calipers. Rears maybe tom. Then I changed the front struts, drivers cv joint, and drivers tierod on a members ride.
 
just went to the pic-a-part yard today. there was only an SE so i didnt get to much like my sending unit, and window regulators but i did get a few other parts...
upgrading my washer fluid tank, those of you 97 owner's know about that huge one over top of the battery
braces, dog bones, and mounts
also got parts for my moms car while i was there turn signal switch, and RR window motor

now that im 18 and can get into the u-pull-it and pic-a-part yards i might make a trip there once a week lol
 
Hmm, yesterday drove for 5 hours from Texas to Ft. Polk, LA with no supercharger :( after replacing front and rear pads and rotors. Today replaced missing SC belt and the ACC belt. Also replaced the SC tensioner pully and SC Idler pully that had locked up and shredded. So now I can stop and I got boost again. Hopefully the F N Prix will be happy with all the new parts for a while.
