Wow month two

Wow this really does suck, its already hitting month two of not using my car, maybe more or less? i dont know. But i know that i need to get this car back. I've become to used to using the bug, and i can feel the 2 seater calling me. I washed about a week ago to keep the top clean and just felt the urge to get in it. But i know i wouldn't be able to stay long, can't even pull out of the drive way. Still the strut bar sits, along with the jobs that must still be done to really bring back to life. But put those aside for just a bit longer, i need this car back.

I can still feel the grind of the 2nd gear down shift, if i demand it to hit that turn at 15+mph around the bend that will forsure kick the ass of the car out. Soon, is all i can say, soon. I suppose i will get the pictures out there so everyone can see my pain, my injured child i can't fix with out the time it needs.

School... can't fix car

Whelp. Basically i haven't been around to fix my car, i still need a alternator. Just really haven't come around to do it yet. So, ya. New things basically are nothing. I need money, and time. And being a college student just isn't generating either of those. Well, a few more days, i will or should have something done. Hopefully. Later guys.

...

Okay ya, my alternator is dead... I found out by driving to school, then the weak roll of the crank just started to slow. My battery is fully out everytime i drive it. So now i must buy a alternator, and change this because school is right around the corner... well tomorrow. Luckily i can get it charged from local shops, thanks to them i can get home and i just can do it all over the next day. So it's the bug for now. And that thing is about to blow because it just needs a oil change. Too much, and i still need to get to school. All in the day of a old school though. I'll keep you guys updated. I haven't found my keys either, so i still need to get a copy of that.

Ah! o'well not a thing. Back and running soon.

About Friday...

Okay, so Friday wasn't the best day for me. As i do every morning i go running with my dad. I rarely bring my keys with me to run, because i have no need since he drives for me. Well, i happen to this morning. And the worst happend... i dropped them. I finished already home, when i actually reached for my keys when i notice. I had nothing but a upset/blank mind. So, i rush back to the lake, a 3-4mile run. Not knowing where to start seeing that access to the lake is pretty open. I had to get a grip and asked officals to keep an eye for them.

So it's night of Sunday. Nothing has come up. I only expect Monday somthing to come up. I have posted fliers and still am waiting.

I will keep you posted for anything that happens.

Nothing current

Well nothing really has gone on, I actually never even drove my car for about a week now. I plan on taking it to get an oil change or if my spin on adaptor for the oil filter comes I will do it myself. But I also have been thinking about getting the interior worked on once again. New seat fabric and floor carpit. The seats really need some restoration, as do the carpit, but then there really is no carpit. Other then that, well I suppose I plan on installing a CD deck and speakers. I am questioning where i want to possition my deck, because then i would have to relocate my fan switch. But its basically all a hazard right now. I have been reading up about maybe a Coil-Over set up, which is taken from a Mazda Miata, for the front. Also possibly adding SPAX adjustable struts. I have heard bad and good about these struts. Bad- they seem to not last, and are more less defective after weeks. Good- They seem to take beatings, and can last over KONI's. This is hard. I currently have KYB's. Some say too hard, but they seem to be perfect, but i guess thats because i never had stock feel, my originals(from the 70's) were worn and just had no "spunk" (just stayed compressed) and would not compress. So KYB replacments seemed a good idea at the time, and if i can move to a adjustable later... I will feel what is what. As for the shocks, CD Deck, and not driving the car for about a week now... that's about it. I plan to have a nice up date when I take it out on the road once again. School time is coming close and it's time to take it up for a little "Spirited Driving"... :) Can't wait.
