It's a 14" wheel which fits me perfectly when I am sitting in the car.

Best part is they are a site sponsor.

I agree 100% on feeling like the ones who passed down the tools are with me when working in my garage.

Good deal on the steering wheel.

MJ,

Obviously you’re very busy, but how about an update?

Default Kore3 Brakes (( 03-24-24 ))

So things have been crazy at work and at life. I finally got out to the garage and decided to make sure the brakes were lubed and ready to go.



Wheels coming off









I really like the new tires



I need to get the front end up and wow did the car settle a little bit.





What ever works





I am happy that I went with the Kore3 brakes from Tobin.





Sooner or later I will put the center caps back on.



Drivers Side is complete



Might as well grease the Upper Ball Joints !!!



Back together

Default Intake Tube Fittings I think (( 04-01-24 ))

So, I ordered a couple fittings for the intake tube and this came in the mail.

Holy crap it looks like an E D Package !!!!







Honestly, I saved the packaging and showed it to my wife so she would know what the heck it was just in case she saw it in the garbage.



I also received the parts I needed to work on the bike for the side of the car.



I found a really old 10 Speed Cassette that needed a serious cleaning.



Cleaned up

Default Cutting the Carpet & Door Sills (( 04-07-24 ))

So I thought I was going to work on the interior and well





However, I decided to move the set back plates under the carpet.









Quick trip to Home Depot



Well, thankfully I starting doing a nut and bolt check and I found that I forgot to install the nuts on the Vintage Air bracket.







Going back to the set back plates.













Cleaning Up the wire looms

Default Vintage Air plastic hoses (( 04-21-24 )) Post Taco's

My plan is to ride today so I decided to make a Taco Run as I new I wanted to Ride today.





Never, did I think this was going to be a big job. I figured it would take a few minutes. Boy was I wrong and thank God the seats were not in the car.

First one is in and it will be feeding the center of the lower dash.



Well, this sucks and I can't find a Band-Aid !!!



Electrical tape to the rescue.



Routing the duct work up to the underside of the dash. I used yellow zip tie's so I can seem them if I ever have to cut them.



The Mag Daddy Magnet mounts worked great under the dash.











Once, I drive the car around a little bit I will most likely install the lower dash that Kenny build.

However, I plan to paint it wrinkle black.



Instead of cleaning up my mess I decided to take Remy for a walk.
