good morning everyone!
I wouldn't be surprised if its snowing up there Devin, LI is freezing right now! temps felt like the 40's-low 50's! brrrr.....

Been raining all morning, woken up by a loud bang I'm assuming was thunder.
I got good news and bad news about my monte...
Good news: Everything in my suspension is tight, alignment was checked over and good, nothing loose & tires got re-balanced and I didn't have to pay a dime!
Bad news: Mavis said they checked everything..& they can't pinpoint where the creaking/crunching sound is coming from. ):

Going to start saving up to buy all new sway bar bushings & a new sway bar(its a little crooked.), new shocks, and start upgrading all the motor & tranny mounts..
PS, I hope everyone has a nice memorial day weekend! I wish happy blessings to all those who served

Well after my first post earlier I checked my email and found out my Saturday morning class was canceled, so I hoped back in bed for a bit

Beach bum mike, space always said the same thing about my cars My horizon does not have a turbo, I don't think horizons came with turbos, their cousin the dodge Omni did and they actually had a Shelby version.

Each car is fun to drive for its own reason, which is why I haven't been able to get rid of any of them. They're all fun in their own way

Morning everyone. only have a few mins in here right now. One thing for sure its a windy sucker out there today! Got to pick up my wife and head over to my daughters about 20 miles away. Going to get some stuff for a garage sale next week. Got up this morning around 9:20 am after finally going to bed at 2:20 am. Got it to this book and couldn't put it down. Till Ozzie came over to me and stared at me. Means he has to go out . That's when I noticed the time. Ok really got to get going later...

Ouch Keane! What happened? Hope you get it handled soon!

Its been oone busy day for my step son...

I failed to get a before pic....
But heres what hes been up to....He has repaired another 5th Gen rust area,
In the same place as the rest of them! Just like mine,Justins etc....
Heres a before and after and the Finished Product!
Anyone here in Michigan needs there rust repaired, and make look as if it was never there!
My stepson is your guy! Not only did he repair the rust..But also wheels the complete vehicle out!
I believe youll agree... The end result..... Is an amazeing Transition!
As you can Tell... Ryan is quite satisfied with the Results!
If anyones interested, Ryan took some really good Pics of the process..As soon as I receive them... I will post them...

Chris, a deer ran out from the side of the road and it hit it. Also, if I order an "assembly" will this include everything I need? glass and all?
