StewCrew Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Elaborate! I'm curious to see what you're planning!Not saying anything yet! I have a date in mind that I want it to be done by. Id rather not say because I dont want to say it will be done at said date, then blow it and mess something up and have to wait more.

I'd like to swing by and check out how things are coming along.Yeah like Brian said, its like Christmas without that one relative who uses 5lbs of tape to wrap their gifts. And nice! What parts and for which car? I usually stay after work to work on the car every day (my work and the shop are the same thing). Im waiting to hear from Andy when he can come time my motor. Whichever day he can is probably when Ill stay extra late though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewCrew Posted March 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 After a couple of rectangles cut from scrap metal, a rivet or two, a few welds, and some zipties... my rear bumper is back on! Also tucked this time too. I havent taken any pics yet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StewCrew Posted March 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 Exciting! no more diving board! I gotta tuck mine sometime soon as well.Exactly! It was a lot easier with the bumper being ripped off too. Just drilled holes and used a sledge hammer to knock the shocks in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever had it maaco painted, had them paint the metal bumpers too. So it almost looks like a plastic bumper with how far it sits in 0.o Also talked to Andy (the guy who will be timing my motor) a little bit. Were going to be aiming to between now and this weekend for him to swing by. I told him no hurry, but I cant wait to get this thing finished!
