...tell me that's not his daily driver!

Old Fart = when you actually start following the posted speed limits everywhere.

And there ain't no way CBird is going to be done by the meet, so it's the RX-7 this time. I'll see what new thing I can do to it by then....stereo or nitrous? Hmmmmmm....

I'll probably be there, but in my RX will probably be slim. After doing the polyurethane bushings, I've come to realize how f'd up the right side suspension still is because I can't even get the control arm back on from the mess being so far off of alignment.

... granted, old and 17 don't exactly go hand in hand. I hope not being a jackass will make up for my lack of years.

The bolt alone had a semi-difficult time going through both holes but went with not a lot of resistance. When I managed to squeeze the lower arm in there. The bolt couldn't make it to the second hole. I tried prying, pushing, and all sorts of things to align everything to the second hole... but it just made it all squeeze the bolt through the first hole to the point it wouldn't budge. Since bending bent metal back to its original position usually makes for more bends and ripples, the only thing I can think of is having someone cut out the sides and reweld some in or something. I dunno, i'm a little bit too frustrated right now.

Good luck!

I'll try to show up with the racecar. Be a lot of fun to drive it on the street again . I'm also planning on testing at the track this Friday if anybody's interested. Not sure which track yet or if its going to hold together 'til then from tuning.

What was the SN of the Forum member with the metallic orange paint FC that showed up two months ago? Is he going to make it? I have a set of FB louvers for him if he does...
