If you put a powerful motor to roast the rear wheels I will forgive you. Do it

Not sure why you’d rate this trash thread 5 stars in the first place

Weather is kinda sorta starting to get better so maybe I’ll start doing things soon... I don’t have a garage to work in and I’m a bitch about working on cars in the cold...

But here’s some doggo content ¯\_(ツ) _/¯

Today I managed to scrape up some motivation today to work on the M52. Doesn't look like I got a lot done... But, I pulled it out from sitting outside under a tarp, cleaned up a bunch of stuff, installed the exhaust manifold stuff, cleaned up the power steering pump, and started looking at some of the wiring. I might need to find another harness. I have no idea what kind of car this one is out of. I know I could make it work but a lot of the plastic covers and such are broken. Oh, I also broke my valve cover while taking it off too...



Torque-to-strip...





And a beer count. Gotta drink cheap beer so I can buy more M52 parts lmao



And some driveway shots since I got a new camera

Any plans to make it to the Picnic this year?

I'm not sure, to be honest. I would really like to make it up there.

Buttoned up a few more things today. Got a new water pump installed, cleaned up the motor mount arms and installed them, and I found out I didn't actually break my valve cover... the gasket was just so plastic-like, I thought it was a part of the valve cover. So the valve cover is good, I just need to finish cleaning it up more.

And, since I didn't take any pictures of the lame progress I made, here's a pic of the E30 that makes it look not so ugly, and some doggo pics.

I'm also going to contact some people about fixing the Futura's in the next couple weeks as well. Really stoked to get those back on as a complete set...
