Dtret Posted March 2, 2022 Author Share Posted March 2, 2022 I’m so lonely. It’s only been a couple of hours since I took my car to get the glass installed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dtret Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 I got it back from the glass shop today. Well it was on the trailer I took it to get the alignment done camber/caster was off 1/16 shim and toe was out two turns on passenger side and 4 turns on drivers. Pretty good for a tape measure. Lol. Radio is a lot less staticky with the windshield installed. Lol. First real drive will be tomorrow or Saturday. Ladies and gentlemen—— LET US PREY. I was pulling into the garage and I just had to light em up. Don’t look like much rubber in the picture but dang the smoke cloud. Lol. Karen was peeeoodddd( censored) stunk up the whole house. 🤪🤪 8 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dtret Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 I’ll take the stupid(lol) bananas, I can make them work. But I think I probably need the prayers more. I’m just a backyard hack that rebuilt a car. It may look ok in pictures but it will probably fall apart on the road. Good thing I have AAA. lol 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtret Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 8.4 miles in heavy stop and go traffic. So far so good. I’m thinking about running the loop around Cincinnati. That should be around 120 miles. That will help the debate on driving to Carlisle. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jft69z Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 is there still a lot of salt on the roads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant MacPherson Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 From what I have seen you are way above the hacks that put unsafe stuff on the road. Probably better than how it came off the assembly line. My new 71 Monte Carlo almost burnt to the ground, car was full of smoke when I disconnected the battery, Than the torque converter came loose and sounded like it was kicking a rod out the bottom of the pan. Still kept it for 10 years, 100,000 miles (still miss it) Anyway, [censored] happens your car looks great, enjoy it! Grant 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish that would happen here, still a lot of salt and a little snow projected Monday, after near 60 on Sunday. Glad the car is running good, hopefully nothing pops up except for the usual minor things like a squeek or rattle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
