Don't they offer courses in driveway feng shui? If the cars parked in the driveway joined together to form a cohesive and harmonious arrangement, I suspect it would assuage the fear and loathing in your neighbors, not to mention the well-paid public servants whose aesthetic sensibilities you have so heinously offended.

lol, You have to leave your garage door open all the time for the CHI to flow, might not be safe nowadays.

get it off the landscape



it was!



phase 1 complete, i pressure washed the crap out of it, it was like the car was new orleans, i was katrina, lots of confused now homeless spiders....



phase 2 is the pressure wash with soap phase, it'll look new underneath, paint is shite though. its even got some sort of growth on the OUTSIDE of the glass...



phase 3 involves working brakes, fluid comes out of the master almost as fast as you put it in.



phase 4 is the custom 5x100 to 5x114 adaptor to get my volks to fit



phase 5 is just to drive i think, although its got weird problems like the throttle sticking, coolant temp gauge doesnt work etc

phase 5 might take some time

yeah, i keep having to remind myself not to drive it, as there are no brakes......



i did take it up the street and the tires are SQUARE too, its like BANG BANG BANG BANG....

RicerJ 03-01-2009 03:32 PM

that had to be fun square tires plus no brakes hmmm what can you do

small update; so there is water on the floor behind the drivers seat, and judging by the broken b-pillar trim on that side, id say someone f-ed it up at the dealership. i think its been like that for a while, the warning light cluster is all corroded, and so is the gauge cluster

Nice find! I'm up to four in various states. One of the last ones I got was like that got it fired up the same day.
