Yep, once you remove all the hardware and electronics from the firewall they’re peppered up pretty good with holes from the factory. It amazed me the first time I stripped one down as far as this one is…joe

Salt Lake City has a beautiful sunset this time of the year …. joe

And I just noticed I’ve been on this forum for 19 years. My has the time flew by.

And if I remember right, some of those join dates are wrong. They got reset after a software update...

You could possibly be correct. Because my boy is 35 and I thought I was in the group when he was very young. And my timeline only goes back to 2013 So even that’s messed up.

Same deal for me too. I started building my coupe in July 2000. And I know I was here then, not certain exactly what date but, I know it was before 2007.

i recently bought a vehicle .. a 08 suzuki xl 7 .. whatever that is .. i couldnt refuse the price even with it damaged on the passenger side .. i can beat that out some day or just drive it .. i`m still looking for a good car .. i am not buying a new one and the ones that are less than 10 years old already have 150 thousand miles on them .. i may go look at a 10 corolla today with a 99 grand on it ,, just broke in good ,, mine had 215 grand when it was totaled and i had no intention of getting rid of it ,, the corolla i want to look at was a light wreck in the front that has been fixed but the seller is acting all wierd on me .. the price is right though .. anyway if some of you need to fix clouded headlight covers and dont want it hired out this stuff did a really good job for me .. these covers were so bad i took a razor blade to them initially to scrape off the worst layer . the kit is rinky dink but it will do a decent job .. probably will do better than i did if you take a bit more time .. the 1500 grit and the polish is what really made the difference ,

iv`e never been one to fret over how my yard looks .. my neighbors left and right mow their lawns every week whether they need it or not .. about a month ago my neighbor on the left cut my yard while i was at work .. i did not think it was that bad .. i could still find my way to my mailbox .. it was the worst time to cut it .. right in the middle of a dry spell ,, anyway i let it get out of control again and with a bit of rain it had gotten about a foot high ,, the neighbor on the right has been lamenting that i have not been very sociable of late ,, fact is i have been deathly ill .. i dont think it was covid as i was only bedridden one day but i was very sick for over a week .. i`d do my 5 or 6 hours at the hardware store and come home and shut down ,, he would even bang on my backdoor but i would not respond ,, just leave me alone ..yesterday he finally caught me outside and ran over to check on me .. i told him i was fine .. just have been sick .. right now he is cutting my yard ,, i was in the shop tinkering with the suzuki but quit when i saw him .. i`m too sick to cut grass remember .. i`ve got good neighbors but it is because i am also a good neighbor ..

When I happen by occasionally I always click "Today's Posts" to see what's new. Finding nothing, I'll offer up this one, purely random....
Adios, amigos!

That's an old post! In any event, on my "first attempt" to get here I received this message, "PHP has encountered an Access Violation at 018BC55F"... then it took 4 more attempts to get actually in and see anything. Weird at times...

way back many dozens of years ago when i bought my first pinto i was working at the yard and so be it we had other wrecked pintos with parts needed to fix mine .. even the same color !! ,, fast forward a few years and the r code mustang comes in .. same situation i snap it up and we have gulfstream blue fender and hood from another car .. today i stop at a foreign junkyard to inquire about them looking me up most of the passenger side of my suzuki and wouldnt you know it .. a wrecked one of the same color had just came in .. i snapped up two doors and a fender for 300 $ .. sometimes things just go your way .. it is a bit of a rare vehicle so i had expected much difficulty in finding stuff ...same tan interior and everything .

And it all seems like this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGkGNCUQtWY

We had the best music, the best cars, and for those who dabbled in them the best recreational drugs. Makes me wish I had a rewind button just so I can go back in time and relive it all and see some of the friends that I’ve lost over the years.….joe
