Great. Let us know what you find. Thanks.

Got the fenders back from the paint shop. They did a pretty good job, there are a couple dimples in the paint

Is this something you had upholstered or is this available as "off the shelf"? Love that!

Whacked a suicidal 4kg Scrub Turkey with passenger mirror, something popped apart inside and glass is misaligned to the housing, I think i need to get in there and check it out.

Any advice?


Cheers

Brine for a day in a basil rosemary bath... then 275 at 60 minutes per pound until 165.. crank it up to like 400-500 for 30-60minutes to crisp the skin.....

then hand it to your body shop guy and hope he gives you a discount.

After the California fires and terrible smoke, I thought it might be a good idea to replace the cabin air filter. It wasn’t quite as bad as I feared, but it definitely needed replacing:

Put together my new QuickJack (best $1000 I ever spent), installed Fister mufflers and new spark plugs, and checked the coil packs. The plugs I pulled out showed the engine was burning perfectly with no evidence of oil consumption or mixture issues. Of course, I didn't expect to see that anyway because the car uses very little oil.





Cheers,
