breaking in the motor with some canyon driving
dyno tested before our trip to texas
Wife, doggo, and I making our way through California traffic.
made it from California to San Antonio in 26 hours. This was a nice treat right here.
started hitting some cold weather on our way back to California after the new year.
Like, really cold weather. For Texas, anyways.
New tires going on before the AutoX event on January 6. There should be some more pics coming from that.
Also working on editing a video that has some startup, cold idle, freeway pulls, and AutoX from the GoPro.
Have a couple small projects on the car coming up. Gonna try and reupholster the glove box with some black suede to replace the weird blue tweed carpet-ish material that's on there now. If that turns out ok then i'll try and tackle the door cards. Also took some notes from cplhardy on IG and picked up some SEM trim paint and am gonna start cleaning up some of the trim pieces on the car.
