Geez, I fell behind on this one...
Great progress!!!
Great progress!!!
Haha, no worries Blake. It's pretty much finished other than having the trunk finished up. It's been sitting for a couple weeks now as I still need to address the "hot wheel" issue.
Dawned on me, I never reset the prop valve after doing the front brake upgrade, I need to try that and see what happens.
Since my thread is up top, figure I'll update it a bit. Last time I had the car out I was testing to see if the IAC whistle was fixed. Annnnd nope, gonna have to waller out the IAC passage a bit. It only makes noise when the engine is at temp, and when no load is on it (so basically when coasting or at idle).
When I returned I noticed the front wheel caps were gone, wheels were really hot! I compared them to the wheels on my BIL's Tahoe since he just got off the highway and pulled in. Everything looks right, but I'm gonna reset the prop valve and see what happens. I got new caps, but they're not going on until the brake issue is remedied.
Haven't been able to really climb around on or under the car, we went camping last weekend and my dumbazz fell asleep on a raft in the lake with no sunscreen on!!!!! Needless to say, I've been dealing with sun poisoning all week and it sucks! PSA kids, wear sunscreen!
Lastly, the wife and kids got me this awesome custom banner for Father's Day.

Sorry about the sunburn, hope you feel better soon. Like the banner, very cool!
Hope you get the bugs worked out soon. Awesome banner! Props to the wife & kids for that one!!
What a cool banner. Great and thoughtful Father's Day gift. Now, go take care of that sunburn. Cut open an Aloe Vera leaf and cover yourself with the gooey substance. It's supposed to work well to relieve sun burn.
I absolutely hate Aloe!!!! I'm finishing up peeling now Jack. Worst I've ever had it, had blisters all over my chest and stomach! Agreed on the banner, totally shocked me honestly. My wife will tell y'all, I'm hard to shop for, she nailed it!
I found that shaving cream with aloe works amazing on sunburn!
Banner is awesome. Hope you a back to 100% soon bud.
