Can I make a suggestion? Something we don't think about when working under our cars, or maybe just doesn't get any keyboard time, the exhaust isolators, you start bang'n around those pipes they fight back, there are 4 of them. Ask me how I know, if they don't try to kill you when you least expect it, they will embarrass you by dropping off right in front of that kid with the honda.
Oh, and nice job on the car so far.

I wanted to congratulate this beautiful woman with acquiring one of her dream jobs !!!!

She's been busy dealing with transition so I've done a little bit.

The lady did hold the cardboard to block over spray. The weathering on this front bumper is pretty deep but we'll get it smooth.

By the way, this bumper isn't put back together yet. Just sitting on the car because it's the best angle to sand this part. The headlight header isn't riveted on. It also hasn't been cleaned yet.

New headlights in (who the hell knew how hard it would be to screw them in, probably just me).... and now she won't start

My son and Scott made her mad having a conversation while I was at work about supercharging her

Truth... apparently I can't leave them alone with her, as they have offended her.
Scott says it's her starter

Pretty cool that you’re all hands on like you are!
I had my daughter operating the floor jack as I did the front springs yesterday, and enlisted my wife to hold the ratchet on the top of the steering shaft bolt as I tightened it underneath.
I think they just like knowing where I am.....in the garage. Lol

Perfect first ride song. Noobz Approved


Edit: I dunno how I missed the first drive video before. I think it was 90's feminine hands that threw me off

The old starter does go on the floor... what's junk is junk.
And I guess I should say I did the starter and starter solenoid...

I can't recall the last time I saw a good starter. The one that came from the factory that I shoulda had rebuilt instead of buying another one and tossing that one.

Now, all we get is Chinese junk replacements and replace them at the same time as our wiper blades.

Careful with the hoops when doing electrical work or near moving parts. I have had flute and saxophone players who got their instrument caught on their earrings or braces. Getting attached to your car via jewelry is not fun.

I’m glad to see no rings or watches.
I welded one side of a twist-o-flex watch band reaching near a battery years ago. It looked neat with the gold tone on one side and blue on the welded side, but it was a challenge to get off my wrist while that hot!

That stuff was nasty. Sounded like pop corn popping pulling it off the sunroof.

She even gave me time for a union break. Went and had ice cream in Dusty. Had to make a tight u turn. Slid around a bit to avoid locking the steering out.
