Nice pic Ant, You coming tomorrow?

I went to fix a leak on the FC windshield, That turned into finding a hole rotted thru the mounting lip of the roog/winshield, That turned into removing the shield to repair the metal, that was going good until the last corner of the molding for the shield, then...click!! and the spiders came quickly Oh well, new windshield should be in on Monday hopefully.. and with no more leaking when it rains
I've got 3 tests to study for this week so I had to do all my driving last night unfortunately but don't worry, I'll have her nice and cleaned up to show everybody when I do have the time to make to the meets.

Does anyone have a turn signal orange cover for an 85? My friend broke his Dads n want to replace before his dad returns n a couple weeks.

I just home from Church at almost 3 sorry hard to make the meets now. I know I only made one but still want to meet again.

The vert looks awsome.

Like the front turn signal covers? I think I might have one, I have to go digging around for a bit.

Didn't show today, this whole weekend was busy as ****. Fixing a carb, detailing cars for 9 hours yesterday. I was at Lowes Motor Speedway today for the Food Lion Auto Fair was there, I took home 2nd place in the Miata's.

My brother and father are in the miata club, I went in his absence since we had to be up and out by 5am. Sucks, cause the trophy is in his name

Ok, I looked through my stash, I found the housings and wiring, the orange reflectors I left at Josh's. Inside the shed hanging on a nail on the left side wall

Let him know about it and I am sure he can get them for you. I have both left and right side IIRC, yours

Another fun note on the windshield replacement clause in NC. It is ONLY free of charge IF you carry full coverage. Bullocks to that!! So my mishapp in trying to stop a leak is going to cost me about 400 bucks winshield, paint,and labor to install. ***!! FD will never get it's parts at this rate

It's the "mini me" version of my FD....when you transplant in a REW or similar They fit in snug as a bug One of my future dreaming projects.

Another windshield update.. I was just called 30 minutes ago and informed my install tomorrow has been cancled due to the fact that ...NO ONE makes a replacement for the FC....BS I say. but now I am left hunting for a windshield for the wifes FC. She is a bit peeved I think
