What did you get done to your SVX this week?
Busy week for me, interested in what you all got done.
Replaced my seats, door panels, carpet gauge cluster and trim. Replaced most of the EGR system fixed all the cracked hoses under the intake manifold replaced my alt charged the AC installed new 02 sensors Hit my car with rubbing compound, polishing compond, and 2 wax coats. (its hopeless, I need new paint) And pulled about 80 parts from the parts car.

I only: Installed a freshly painted, JDEM spoiler equipped trunk lid on BillStock 4.0 Almost finished running "block seal" through the engine....beginning to think that yes, the wandering temp needle was due to a sticking thermostat Put the Pearlie's trunk lid back on (it was on BillStock 4.0 while it's was being painted, getting the JDEM spoiler installed) Drove the Pearlie around the area with no tags on it - had "eagle-eye Austin" riding shotgun. Confirmed that the Pearlie's parking pawl in the trans is not holding (starting drifting back down the driveway until I put the parking brake on) Moved the dual AICs around the garage and started thinking about how I can mount them without cutting the SVreX's front bumper up too much Loaded a box of 304 stainless pipe into the commuter car to use later this week when I learn how to TIG weld EG33 headers Put more air into one of the 295 A6s that refuses to hold air for more than a week -Bill

Tom,
I'm delivering the Mars mission proposal to NASA HQ this week, so I'll have my life back for a week or two. -Bill

Lets see...
I put gas in it(twice). Installed new ceramic rear break pads(fronts already done). Washed it. Contemplated removing the headliner, but did not, cause i got tired/lazy today.
