Just rolled past 124,000 miles. New tires put on, oil changed, etc.. Been driving in extreme heat with the AC blasting here in AZ. The car still drives like a dream and I smile every time I see it! ;-p

Just bought spacers and extended studs. Test fitted rear spacers and it looked awesome!!!
I am dreading changing the studs out. Hopefully won't be as bad as I've built it up in my head.

Fixed the glovebox door with the Rennline repair kit - no more flopping.

It's not normal if the two arms/stops on either side are missing and the door flops down to a vertical position.

Installed and torqued the cylinder head back onto the engine. This is taking me longer than I had planned as stuff call life keeps jumping in front of me. Oh well

Pulled the tail pipe off the spare exhaust in my garage and it cleans up nicely. Just noticed the nice roll on the 92 exhaust tip vs the 94/95 straight look.

Washed for the first time since April; goes to the upholstery shop tomorrow for a new top. I bought one with a tinted rear window. Already tinted the windshield to protect the dash from the sun.

Chuck what % tint did you have done on the windshield? I've been considering doing the same to protect my dash. 3M has a clear tint that I got samples of that supposedly blocks UV rays.

Hi Colin, sorry but I do not remember. It's a ceramic tint and not very dark at all. I had it done months ago bf the ew windshield was installed.

Thanks! Wheels are one of those things where most everyone has their own favorite.
