Lol nice Murica hood. You need some bacon on your valve covers

[M M]

Why thank you sir! Your mk2 is looking very nice.

Rebuild and carry on, not the worst thing that's happened :P

Well thank you! You certainly made the best of the situation.

[aaron22]

absolutely love the hood. If only the canadian flag were that bad ass

I don't think I've commented on this before but I'm enjoying following it. Shame about the hood though. I love the way this car sits, fat tyres all the way!

This brings us to this past week. One night I was over my friends house as I normally am, hanging out with people and working on cars. I had just finished pulling my dash to redo the gauges as well as wiring. My hood was off, and in a safe place(or so I thought). My friend's, mother's boyfriend pulled in and ran over my original hood I wasn't very upset at first, but it is a bit sad having to ditch an original piece from the car. We had a spare bronzit hood lying around, so grabbed that and on it went.








Then the next day, after finding oil all over the floor, I realized I had stripped the fitting on my oil pressure gauge. So after a run to Salve, and spending the last $20 in my pocket, I had a new gauge.







Then came the fourth of July... I will not explain, just use pictures. And thank my friend Miller for the two awesome teaser shots from the shoot.






I'm in love with this shot

[FunfGang]

So I realized I haven't updated my thread in a while, so 'ear goes.


So I finally pulled the heat gun, a rag and a large crow bar out and straightened my valance more.








Realized my car is a little on the small side.







Someone messed up my fender. I don't know who, and I'm not pointing fingers, but...







Finally cleaned my trunk up, and started reinstalling all the pieces. I'm planning on fabric dying/ spraying the carpet, as it appears it was used to spay paint something a while back... Whoops.







Went rallycrossing, rip some skids








Then as I was driving home from work one day, tragedy struck. After 7000+ miles, countless 6+ hour trips and many months, my clutch pedel went right to the floor Once again, my rebuilt slave cylinder bit the dust.

So I ordered two rebuild kits(you know, just in case) and got to work. While tearing apart the slave assembly, my friend thought to pull out a caliper and measure the push rod, as the fluid was full of metal shavings. It varied by as much as .5mm, in terms of diameter. To explain, it turns out that it was not the angle the slave was pulling at(caused by the rod not being centered/ isolated in the original bell-housing clutch cable mount), but rather, the rod had been scraping on the old mount and metal shavings had gotten into the fluid, and eaten the o-ring, causing it to leak. So after I rebuilt it, I built a temporary bushing until I cut a real polly or aluminum one(which would require an integrated grease fitting and it's own o-ring).










Then my friend and I(mostly him) finish up my fathers new car, meet Heidi. She's been my daily for the past few weeks.

Sadly I don't own the penguin

If I did I would share it with all of StanceWorks.

Except Celli.

My penguin would end up plastidipped neon pink.

that's blasphemy to the penguin community.

So I typed up a really awesome update, that was witty, funny and entertaining. And then exited the tab trying to click back from photobucket. So for now, the pictures. And no, the penguin is part of the update.

[Pseudonyms]

[FunfGang]

I really like the look of those wheel on the car, but the shmidts are also timeless one of my top wheels for sure its a toss up.
