| | | | Well, I changed the name of this album since now I am going to document the work I do on the car. I wish we had started doing this before but whatever......Lets start with the clutch, shall we? Clutch work is a real pain in the caboose.... But it's fun... It was less than a week when all was said and done. But waiting for parts and a real paying job made it take a lot longer. We started the project in mid November and finished December 21st. Here are some pix of the work we did. As of 12-21, the car is again running. We just need to adjust the clutch a little. We saved quite a few dollars doing the work ourselves. Especially in shop supplies.... :-) All work was done at a couple of hours at a time, we hate having to work longer than that at any given time..... This had originally started as just a basic clutch job but then turned into having to replace the exhaust too. Take a look for yourselves and let us know what you think.
There's a short video we did at the end of the photos. We hope you enjoy! Don't forget to turn up the speakers.......

At the end of y2k6 we decided to finally fix the clutch and it goes a little like this....... This was done at the same time as the clutch but it is a different job, so I decided to make an exhaust section. Here are the stock tips that we had to make fit the new 2.5 exhuast pipe. Here is the repairs we did to the inner trim right behind the door. Both pieces need the screw holes repaired due to someone over tightening the screw. So both sides were reamed out and always loose. A little plastic welding and w… Quick welding project for a friend at work. These are here so he can take a look at it. Just when you think your done something else pops up. One of the exhaust manifolds had a broken ear so this is what we did to fix it. Sooooo, here it is, the deed is done, finally. Enjoy. Back in April '07 we had to fix a leak. Well now we have to rebuild it due to it sitting too long. At the end of 2007, we didn't do much but drive the car..... 2008 might have more in store...
