Soon, by the end of this week soon, 2 new 235/60/15 Cooper cobras, and a virgin crank for my old motor. $178 shipped to my house. Not bad. Its from a dude, not a Chinese pop can foundry or parts house.
After that measure how far down in the hole my current rod/piston combo sits in the hole, as well as measuring all 4 corners to determine how far it needs decked, get my rods checked out and reconditioned with arp bolts, order some bits from TA and crower, some custom forged pistons for 10.25:1 (just sounds better that 10:1 😛 ) for $699 (includes rings and pins) and my 400+hp ~400lb short block will be done. 😀

Bought some sponge seal to install on the back of the sail panel trim. No way I'm paying $45 for replacement stuff that doesn't have to seal out water! Then gonna give the dash the 'Turna' repair with 2 part bumper repair epoxy. Lastly, more LED's more the map lights.
Also bought and picked up my visors which look great!..

The front fiberglass bumper looked like crap compared to the rear so I opted for this..........
with the weather that is headed your way when you said you bought a muffler I expected to see one of these
Come on he is more of a ball-gag kind of guy... most bikers are a kinky sort.
Bought that crank. And Im gonna forego the two new tires for a set of burgundy Monte SS seats for $200. Little faded, but they're solid. I can always recover them. First step into my 200r4 swap is the seats. Then console and shifter, floorshift column and cluster. 😀
Picked up the third 1 gallon primer kit for the Malibu......$1200 so far. Just on primer.
