    Washed it, then drove it ~120 miles to a BMW meet, and on the way a zillion bugs swarmed me as I drive down the road. Definitely one of the dirtier cars there, but it was still a fun time!

    Today I fixed the reverse light wiring, so now my dash and reverse lights are back in working order!

                I was taking my 16's off to put my bottles on. 16's need spacers and longer bolts. Wanted to burn up the rest of the rubber on my bottles and go get new taller rubber.

                Had the idea to "stance" ( fuck did i use that word) the bottels with my 16's spacers but its a no go.

                Everything i tried failed :(

                    Changed the oil, filter and spark plugs. Fix the power steering leak, installed the valance and the bumper. Test drove it. Power steering still not working. It still runs like shit.

                              Replaced plug wires with OE spec wires. Now I can drive through puddles with a running engine.
