To many natural hot springs here to go through all that trouble.

My favorite red wine was one with a smoky flavor. The reds are either really good or really bad. Sounds like Rome is treating you good.

The only cheaper route would be if they have kits to rebuild your upper arms and idler. Time vs money on that one, and possibly tools you don't have. Is the joint at the pitman arm on the pitman or the centerlink? How are your wheel bearings? Shocks? Sway bar bushings? What year is it on Mikey? Just replaced the left side wheel bearing. Ride side was replaced a couple years ago. I'll need t check the shocks and bushings. 2002 modelGood choice on the Moogs. Should be a pretty quick job actually, not fucking with the torsion bars. They rent both sizes of pitman/rod end pullers at O'Reillys.

I have been forced to take a week off from wrenching on the Mustang due to flare ups in my back and arm. I have quit taking pain Meds as a means to push myself so just had to take a break.

All the front suspension is out!! Brakes and steering pulled also. Most of the prep work done...working on getting the master cylinder/booster out. That MFer is a tight fit.

He will be aligning the Mustang once I get that bitch back together...

Time to install my mechanics speakers. Is payment for doing struts, suspension, alignment and clutch in the Honda. I bought him some Polk 6501's. The neo motors are insanely small.

Speaking of tires, I can't remember the last year I ran snow tires. Would guess 10+ years. As far as the bald ass Toyo's, I was not in pressed with the wear on the Spectrums. Yes they were mad grippy when I got them but wore WAY to fast. Wasn't overly impressed with the Michelin Harmonys either.

Huge beers, bad exchange rate, or just that damn pricey? J I would be fine with that price if they were worth it. Were the worth it?Curious what breakfast is like in Asia?

Thanks Ryan! The Magnum 500's are my first choice if I do a stamped wheel as they definitely keep the classic look. The Torque Thrust's are about the only other rim I have found that compares to the SS's in looks. I am hoping to make it to a car show or two in the near future to feel them out in person.

A pic of the current rims. As the car will be painted blue, this is a decent example of the SS's on a coupe.

I love the Crager SS wheels. I had them on my GN for a while. But I kept breaking them. While the look is classic, the quality sucks balls. I had to go with Weld Drag Stars. None of the Weld Drag Star appeal to me. All are to modern looking. Any other suggestions Seth or anyone for that matter? Had the SS wheels on a Firebird... Only time one broke was from the tire guy NOT removing the center cap and blowing out the hub throwing it on the tire machine. Being as the early Stang isn't really build for mad power, I don't see ever having that kind of torque.

Go with the older stuff. At least it is easier to deal with. J The prick just got back from Rocklahoma. Nothing worse than working with your boss on his monday. ALWAYS full of stupid shit to say.

Everytime they change photoshop I have to learn it over again. Is a good time saving tool in my trade though.

How long are you staying in Europe Matt?

If it has titts or wheels it's going to cost you money.

I made it three years without a crack in the windshield. That's pretty good for Colorado, as they gravel the roads heavy in the winter. Your doing good to make it more than a year. As we call it a Colorado windshield onces it's cracked from side to side. The police won't generally pull you for it, but is a good reason if they need one.

I think I'm going to be forced to listen to hip hop at work today. My brother is like a human karaoke machine, but he is a terrible vocalist. thought it funny when I was 5, but not anymore. He hates rap/hip hop so is the only solution as I refuse to work in silence. I don't know how I have worked with him almost 10 years without strangling him.
