Our garage cannot fit very tall cars either as the driveway is at a 15 degree angle so there's a risk of hitting the top. Also cannot have any lowriders because you'd bottom out at the other end, which is fun.
our door is 7ft tall and 8 ft wide, but with the lift kit and 33 inch tires the bronco is like 6 inches too tall to fit
Clean clean clean clean clean clean clean clean clean up!!! Never wash car been 3 month ago! And never interior been 11 month ago lol! Done now!
That's a nice Ford Fiesta! I really like how I see that manual, I've seen a lot of Fiesta's that are automatics, but never that are manuals.
It's the UK. Every fiesta trim level is manual as standard. Auto is optional extra in certain models only, one that's very very rarely purchased (apparently under 10%)
Yesterday I wire wheeled the right quarter and roof on the firebird, then sanded it and gave it a temporary flat black paint job to protect it until I can get out the air sander and bring the shell down to bare metal so I can weld in new sheet metal for the left quarter, tail panel, and fix the rust on the right quarter and on the floor
My civic's radiator shat itself, so while waiting for parts, decided to tackle the rust in the back because there was some bubbling. Safe to say it was worse than I thought lmao. As you can see, the passenger side has a shit ton of bondo so this will be fun.
bondo is the 'easier' body filler. go back a few decades and Lead was used as the body filler. the show Monster Garage has an episode called Big Daddy Caddy where they showed someone using lead instead of bondo. personally, I'd rather use Lead as it becomes a part of the car and you don't have rot 10 years later.
Yea definitely. It looks like the previous owner replaced some of the passenger rear quarter panel for some reason. They did a pretty decent job covering it up as I had no idea there was that much bondo, but they left a lot of metal exposed at the lip, where the rust im fixing is. I'm gonna look into Lead because I'm probably keeping this car for a long time, don't want it to rot again lmao.
i cleaned out my beetle and covered it up..just waiting to turn it into a pickup and opened the hood up which was locked and we found a birds nest
Yep I have a metal door skin from another civic, just gonna cut that and weld it in. I guess I'll post pics if it goes well lmao
Radiator and parts came in, swapped that real quick. Still working on quarterpanels. Looks shit tbh but still working on it. Its strong and can be covered up.
I fixed the door chime on the bronco with some new foam on the pezioelectric speaker, it sounds like new now, before you could not hear it if the truck was running or someone was talking The foam came from a dead smoke alarm
The 5 year-old factory battery finally died in my Impala. Left me stranded at work, lol! Not even a heads up; just dead. Had it replaced, of course. It's working like a charm now
I started my truck. soon, it will be road legal again (freaking out of date tags). all I can really do with it is start it and run it for a few minutes once a week.
same, I need tires (current are probably older than me!) and I need to fix the non-locking driver door before mine is road ready
