nice im loving that Estate

 

i wanted one a while back as the prices were okay but the taxes here doubled the price so i couldnt afford it :(

anyway looks awesome but what engine do you have ?

[killalldude]

Thanks! It's the 6.1 HEMI.

Thanks! It's the 6.1 HEMI.

 

It must drink a lot!

[RobikV3]

It sure does haha! but the sound and acceleration of that car makes up for it, but i have to say i prefer magnum front end

[killalldude]

^^Lol yes and yes to both comments. This pretty much sums up the HEMI experience:

 

 

Europe is lucky, they get a 3.0 Mercedes diesel engine which is apparently very mod friendly and has nearly as much torque as the 5.7 model.

it dos about 10l/100km

Finally got my new wheels and tires. :)

 

[RobikV3]

It needs lowering a bit the front looks sky high :D

[Ken]

Yes eventually. GM designed the car where the front wheel wells are higher than the rears.

[RobikV3]

Most of the cars are designed that way specially older ones but its not as visible as on your Fiero i guess its the low profile of the car

[Ken]

Had to take a better picture of her. ;)

This sheered bolt nearly scrapped my head. Was damn lucky that I'm a pro at getting things out of impossible places with my trusty mole grips. There was barely 1mm of bolt sticking out of the hole and even that was only one side of the bolt.

 

 

And seeing as though I was down to the cams I thought I'd take them off to give them new seals and also take the tappets out to give them a good clean. Had to use an old car speaker and mini ratchet extension bar to get them out though.

 

 

Just leaving the dismantled tappets soaking in some degreaser over night. Hopefully my new cam seals will be back tomorrow so I can start putting it all back together. :) Should be just about ready for when I get back home next week.

Had the opportunity to drive a Nascar Sprint Cup car a couple weeks ago. Was very fun and theres a lot more that goes into these cars and how to drive them than the usual left turn stereotype, although we were at an oval. Carrying momentum and using the banking is vital for a good lap or else you scrub all your speed. Not sure how fast I actually went as theres no speedo in the car but I'm guessing in the reigon of 120-150 MPH.

Nice man :) Not a massive fan of those things as per the normal stereotypes but I'm "well jel" still!

Finally posted pics of my truck after I got the Wheels for it. Also I think I win that Fuel economy thing you guys had. I get 29L/100km. That's 8MPG. It sucks. Only one photo because its the only one I have of it clean. Damn muddy Canadian summers

So, here are yet another pics of our poor little girl that everyone is dying to see.

 

I have done a proper interior clean (on the other vehicle as well, something the car has not seen in a long time apparently. Cleaned and vac'd the carpets, dressed the plastics, cleaned and protected the leather stuff.

 

Some before & afters. The color of the seats is pretty hard to capture properly, it is more beige-ish than white-ish IRL.

 

 

 

 

Also, did the engine bay today. Nothing serious, but polished some of the metal pipes I had access to.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Fear Deer]

Impressive work, and I'm not joking when I say you could make business out of that, you have the passion and the technique apparently!

 

I'd pay you to do that work on my car ;)

[superhyper]

Yeah, definitely something you could make a living of Tom :nods:

[The Compensator]

Thank you guys! :)

 

I was also thinking that I could start doing this as a part-time job, I love detailing and thanks to my parents (and the 1 Series that even made my dad say the paint is horrible :lol:) I now have almost everything I've ever wanted and needed, though I gotta know how to start it up. Probably make some new contacts first... :hmmm:
