I washed and hand glazed my car today and was picking at the crack and the stupid thing broke off to the metal!!! Wasn't my putty as mine was blue, this looked like a Bondo special. So I just glued it back in place till I get the hood.:(

- install new tires (tires now on rims...waiting for snow to melt)
- switch suspension to summer mode
- repaint (the new damage on the door at least)

Time to lower it down? :) Sorry to hear about the damage. :( Didn't you have collision repair done on the left side already?

The Prodrive battery tie down and oil cap are universal and will fit 90% of Subarus. :cool:

My list as of this evening...

Pick up super secret part from coaters on Tues after work. Finish some last minute clean-up things on it. Install super secret modification and make proper adjustments to effected portions of the engine bay. Get my Hydra back in it and fire it up... Re-tune... Maybe try and clean it a little... :p Is it still March??? I really hope its not April yet:o

Yeah, 3 times prior! My car has a lot of history.

Doesn't make me love it any less though.

Tires are installed.

Left to do:
- switch suspension to summer mode (Friday)
- repaint (the new damage on the door at least) (May)
- possibly an alignment (car really doesn't like the slight grooves in the street)

1). Pick up a/c part number 73052PA110 Tuesday and have Superior Radiator install and charge the now-converted system with R134A.

2). Drive to Rochester, NY in time to leave for Reading X Friday April 17th in the a.m.

:eek:

Cheers!

SURE: some of us ( HI, Earl!) out here on the "Left Coast" still consider a drive to NY & PA just a short jaunt, especially if there is an SVX-related event to attend...

:D

Cheers!

Why are you coming to Rochester? I live near there. Don' think i'll make Reading though. Just lost about 1qt of oil in a week thru the VC gaskets. I'm trying to nurse it till I can afford them.
