I drove it to dinner, first time moving in 2 months. I remembered why I had not driven it, the starter sounds like death!

Time to order a new one.

My son and I took her to Kars on King in Oshawa today. Annual free car show on the downtown streets. Hundreds of cars, mostly North American. Must have seen over 20 G bodies.

I tightened a couple AN fittings that were barely leaking trans fluid, put some heat wrap on my shifter cable just in case, bolted the driver side muffler on again, and also got my hood hinges re-prepped for paint. Painted them on Monday but the humidity kicked my tail and screwed up the finish.

Finished my rear suspension replacement, Moog 5665s really dropped the backend down, didn’t have to cut them at all. New UMI tubular adjustable control arms and 1 inch sway bar, KYB gas shocks. My 17X8 gold Dazzler wheels with 245/45X17 General Max AS-05 tires fit nice in the wheelhouse. The top of the tire is even with the wheel opening.

Getting it out of the garage for the weekend so I can clean the garage.

Side note:. Looks like I will need to loosen the rear control arm bolts while it's on the ground. ( They went on before the body so that I had a rolling frame.)

Ha, thanks for the lightbulb moment! Right now I have a serious amount of positive camber, duh I bolted up the front A arms while vehicle in air.
Maybe if I jack it up, loosen the bolts, lower car until it touches ground, then re tighten it'll fix it. I set the tie rods, spacers etc exactly the same as before.
