Waxing the Charger
by brian @ 12:02:11 - [perma-link]Actually Meguiar's Quick Clay, then 3 step polish and wax. Supposedly
this suff rocks. It gets all the crap off the paint so the wax can go on
smooth. This should be a good test. |

Mopar Show
by brian @ 01:30:51 - [perma-link]Josh and I went to a Mopar show at a local car dealership today. It
was the first of this show, but there were some pretty cool cars.
Everything from stock restorations to fully race modified. Lots of
good ideas for my Charger (parked behind the, uh, Porsche). There was
only one blower-motor, and it was on a truck.
Next year I should have something worth showing. |

Evil Twin
by brian @ 03:03:26 - [perma-link]Hard to see, but this is possibly the evil twin of my Charger. Yeah,
it's a Roadrunner, but its got the same paint scheme as mine! |

Drug are bad, m'kay?
by brian @ 19:27:40 - [perma-link]We gave the cats a sedative for the trip. They did NOT like it. They got
gorggy and quite pissed off. And maybe a little drowsy.
We ended up stranded* in Redding due to snow. Elvis wouldn't come out
from under the front seat, even after an hour of coaxing, in the rain.
We went shopping, then came back and he was finally out.
Now they're all in our hotel room. They're still a little H.I.G.Y., but
they're mosty back to normal.
We're NEVER going to do that again.
Tomorrow we're planning to take a 4 hour detour around the mountains, so
we don't get stuck again.
* we're stranded because I-5 is snowed and was going to open for chain
or snow tire traffic. The Defender was no problem. Kragen had chains
that will fit the Charger. But the M-3, with its 255/40R18s, apparently
doesn't DO chains (or so the kragen guy said, after calling
around...including a call to bnw in sactown). |

New springs!

out, and it will make the trip to Portland.
It's like a whole new car! |

Washed and waxed
by brian @ 15:23:50 - [perma-link]I washed the charger, covered some spots with coverup, then waxed it.
It still doesn't look great, but its way better than it was. |

Bright and Shiny
by brian @ 20:00:27 - [perma-link]I took my Charger through the car wash today. It looks so much better
when its clean. I can't wait for the rest of the parts to come in so I
can fix the suspension.
Then it will totally kick ass. |
