More car goodness
More from the files of 'WTF were they thinking?' As I've begun to fix things on my car I keep wondering what exactly the people were thinking when they worked on my car. All I can figure out is they weren't. I find bolts that shouldn't fit in that place but do. Wonder why they didn't take the time to install it correctly, etc, etc. But then again, when the cover I have covering the car is worth more than the paint job on it - that probably tells you something about them -- and me.
Anyway, I managed to get the front A/C crash bar installed on the car.. took the user of the BFH to make it all fit, but that is how it seems this car is going to be. I also fixed the horns on the car, buy installing a new one. The previous horns were cracked completely and just didn't work at all. I also got part of my strut brace installed since it required installing some backing plates on the outer fender my hands came back out dirt colored after they were installed.
All of this and it of course added a little more to do. Since the horns aren't getting any power to them, it means I have to go troubleshooting with a multimeter and some spare time. But, this isn't that bad - overall it is kind of fun, especially since I'm waiting for more stuff to show up.. which can then be installed on the car. At least it is a hobby.
