Thanks dude!

Progress has been suspended again while I recover from the shock of putting money down on my gf's engagement ring.

I went through that this year. You just gotta power though it and be a little broke. It wont get easier. Still have a wedding to pay for I assume? I have noticed a difference in my wife's attitude towards spending money on the car since the wedding. My advice is to get as much done before that date haha

[theseeker411]

Yeah, well she also has her Mk3 Cabrio build to worry about, and she's the one that told me I couldn't sell ODB when I was under/un-employed, lol.

Currently saving/working overtime to fund a set of front tires.

damn this thing is fresh

Hey cj,

I love ODB

Love, Jackson

[theseeker411]

Haha, thanks Jackson. Gonna be ordering new front tires after I get paid this week. I also need to start refreshing all of the suspension bushings.

[Chuckdee]

Ahhh yeah, can't wait to see some stretch action

Dude have you seen how much a wedding costs? ODB should be happy I haven't tried to sell him for the 20th time.

[244Brick]

hahaha yeah i know bro!

I'm super happy for your engagement though. I don't even know you, but i love hearing about love > cars, because this is my passion not my life. JS

[theseeker411]

Haha thanks man.

Finished my taxes tonight and I'm getting a bit of a return. Probably going to be picking up some parts for ODB soon to make it more road worthy. I also have a line on some seat parts that I need, which I really hope works out.

[theseeker411]

Well that was quick. Ordered my tires yesterday, and came home from work today to the sight of these things on my porch.

[theseeker411]

So today I rolled ODB over to NTB to get the front tires mounted and balanced and to get his alignment checked out and adjusted.

[/url]

Thank God I bought new tires. ODB's were looking a little beat.



Also, his alignment was a little off.



Yeah... Oops. I can now drive one handed instead of with my usual two handed kung fu death grip.

The shorter sidewalls let me cruise ODB around with a little less pressure in the front bags, and he sits a little lower too.



Now to fix up the paint a little, reupholster the front seats in white, and find some euro turn signals before SoWo.
