      tried to fix a small oil leak and ended up making it into a huge oil leak. Not happy

        I spent a couple hours on the tractor grading a level spot where I can park my cars out of the way but still close enough to the front door.

        This place is like catholic school, 2/3 of the students smoke weed on a daily basis, but the faculty seems to convince the outside world that drugs are just in the other schools, the resident pot dealer thinks he's cool because he has the originality to call anyone he doesn't like a homosexual, and most of the little children follow him like sheep, then there's the few with brains, you hardly ever hear from them, perhaps don't even know they exist, but they get all the sh!t done.

                Finally finished fixing my newest e30. So many weird things with that car. The exhaust fell off last night, yea, it fell the hell off. New fuel pressure regulator and it runs real smooth now. Only took me 12 bottles of beer, 3 packs of cigarettes, and 5 nights of staying up til 3 a.m. to get her to be somewhat reliable.

                  Continued working on cleaning the engine bay and getting it ready for reassmbly. Put some fresh paint on the airbox, and the AFM cover:





                  Then did some more cleaning on the engine bay, and painted the blower motor cover (all that grey area below the washer fluid tank isn't dirt, it's just ravaged):

                    Installed wheel studs, installed corbeau passenger seat bracket and harness, created a carbon fiber switch panel for the window switches (because I don't have a center console any more).

                        also, cleaned the interior (a little)

                            Fabbed up an exhaust system for my S52 car so I can start daily commuting in that sucker! I've been putting it off for 3 months now, but it's great to have it done! Woot.

                              I didn't touch either the parts car or my DD but I did purchase a new air compressor (4HP 115psi, 10 Gallon) for dirt cheap at Harbor Freight along with a lot of new tools and stuff to get working on the car tomorrow.
