WAZZZZZZZZUP?! Getting ready to drive into my project. Recently cleaned out the garage to make room to push Leia into start the tear down again buuuuut now she's been evicted to the driveway again.
Yeah. I've shuffled quite a bit over the last couple months. My oldest is about to driving age so had to purchase him a vehicle. He is now the proud 'owner' of a 1987 K5. Nothing wrong with it just needs a lot of TLC. First thing we did was replace the seats - the original ones were basically springs only. This guy (FKA Vader) I picked up for $50 as a basket case. Motor was removed and believed to of had internal transmission damage by the previous owner. Got it home, $250 later I had a used motor ready for install. During the install I discovered it wasn't in fact the internal transmission but rather the final drive had a stripped gear. I just recently disposed of it a couple weeks back and will be ahead about $300 on it. Now that the garage is cleaned out again I was getting ready to put Leia back inside up on stands so I can begin the brake repairs/replacement/upgrades (SS lines, new pads, rotors, blah blah blah). Well just over a week ago her daily decided to break down again. Long story short -- we didn't trust that vehicle anymore. Sky came home and evicted Leia back to the driveway.
screw it, the new car has some wax that can withstand the elements for at least the first 6 months. you'e got time!
