Garage
I got that black 2000 model running and not leaking coolant, then lost interest in working on the many other things wrong with it.

I started getting the Frog ready for Rallycross in July. The 'mufflers' needed to be attached better, then I drove it around the neighborhood to give it a good check. Police didn't drive by until after it was parked for about 15 minutes. I'll do some alignment work and mount some newer rear tires before the next race.



I decided to have the fender, bumper, and aerokit side skirts painted for the arena red '99. I've been wanting to work on that car, but never find time enough to commit to make serious progress. Having the parts painted will cost over $1,500, but a good professional job is worth it. The engine is still in my garage needing a full refresh.

I got the windows working on the Xbox. I had hacked into the wire harness too casually over the years - deleting HVAC, installing and removing the nitrous system, off-road lighting, CB radio, manual fan switch, etc. I pulled out the ugly mess of tangled wires and ran the accessories to a switch & fuse from the battery and reconnected the broken 12V wire to the window switches. All good now.




I'll probably install a modified passenger seat for my new co-driver, Brad (Pit).
