I had to pull my car out of my "garage" because the dampness was killing it.



I moved it to the shop while I wait for the new concrete floor to be poured over my dirt floor of a garage, which is more like a shed.

Then I have the electrician coming to put power in there.

I figure the car might live there for at least another year so it best be comfortable.





While I was at it I bathed the TII, they are now housed together in one of those shelter works tents.



The vert was grouchy being driven for the first time in 2 years, the brakes dont feel right and the

A/C is not coming on, wondering if all the old fashioned freon leaked out?

The clutch also feels funny but I dont know if thats because im used to the much

harder pedal in the V8FC that I drove a few times a week.



the TII needs work











the bastard RX is in the backround











at least its engine is clean now







sitting together in the shanty

vert could prolly have all of its fluids changed, brake fluid absorbs water....

I swear the brakes never felt right since I put the stainless lines on there.



I should have just put new rubber lines.



Is there a way to bleed the clutch ?

The clutch on the TII is not fully engaging, I think I need to adjust it or bleed it because it used to be fine

I think it just needs adjustment, car has been sitting for close to 3 years now





As for the garage I cant wait to have a 2 car garage, but for now a new floor will have to do!
