2013 Dulles Town Center / Chick-fil-a Meet Thread
I probably won't be making the trek out because of the lame weather. Hopefully next week will be nicer.

I'm taking the day off to go to King's Dominion but I should be back by CFA time. I'll try and head over but I probably won't have time to wash all the bug splats off the car.
As usual I will not be able to make it out tonight. Seems to be the case for the remainder of the month as well.
Ugh, at this rate I might as well just sell the car.

I really need to clear up my fridays. That is a much larger meet then I expected.
Believe I saw four FD's and an FB together. Sorry I didn't say hello ; No parking next to you guys and didn't know who/where you were. Relegated myself to a corner somewhere and went to stare at the classic muscle. Left shortly after.
Hopefully I can go again soon.

Gonna play it by ear, they say the rain is coming around 4pm today. The FD is still not finished but I've made a lot of progress. The new steering rack is in and I just got these ready to install:

Maybe wrap it up this weekend

Anyone have a new oil filter? I want to do an oil change on the FD tonight before the AutoX tomorrow and I can't find where I stashed my spares. I'd rather drive out to CFA and get to hang out a bit then have to drive down to Malloy and have to skip CFA.
Anyone?

Want to? I don't even want to do my own! But if you want to bring em over I certainly can offer some help
The front ones, apart from being a geometrically challenging piece to get into a press, were a lot easier than the rear ones.
Sorry don't have any filters. I just go to the autoparts store for mine. Usually get a Bosch Premium filter and call it good.

Sweet, want to do mine?

I got one if you need it.
Armitage, are those the Powerflex bushings? i agree with them being a PITA to install being so akward. I did all the bushings on my FD, and only massacre was a bent trailing arm from a bushing that would NOT budge. glad to see someone else running them.
