I received the same letter earlier this year. Tempting indeed. Good to know the state has a solid handle on personal property values.

Fought with the little clip on my old angle drive, after about 5 mins I got it out. New angle drive is insalled and all is well.

My blinker sorta quit blinking on the way to DCS14. I noticed that it came and went based on speed, clutch engagement, brakes and wiggling the wires. Removed the module, removed the module cover and noticed the negative terminal looked like the solder was no longer adhered. So I reflowed the solder and it blinks like new. I like these kind of fixes!
Fitted new ignition coil at the weekend. Took the time to clean the coil compartment. Took the engine cover off at the same time to treat a bit of rust on the engine cover prop bar.
Treated some spots of flaking epoxy and underlying surface rust (A war I'll never win in Scotland, sadly).
Started on replacing my engine mounts. Got the main studs out either side, but lifting up the car via the oil pan lifts the entire thing. Need to find a good way to loosen the bolts into the frame...
Made a new wire bundle for my keyless entry, with original matching connector for the door lock wiring loom. Looks good. With new actuators, latch and lock adjustments, new window regulators and rail reset, the doors finally work as they should. Very content!
I removed 4194's turbo for a rebuild and ordered a Rajay rebuild kit from G-Pop Shop in Arkansas.
A special thanks to Marty Maier for referring me to G-Pop Shop and providing documentation regarding rebuilding the Rajay! I'll post pictures of the rebuilding process along with the documents that Marty provided in its own topic to assist others who have the B.A.E. kit.
Tried to repair my cracked dash. It is better, but I'm clearly no expert when it comes to vinyl repair.

The crack bugs me, but not a lot. I need to determine if it is worth replacing the dash with one of the new DMCH ones at some point. I've read mixed reviews on quality though and am thinking I may be better off dealing with my small crack. For those that have the new dash, knowing what you do about it, am I better off keeping what I have?
Installed new louve struts and a hood cover catch, which didnt work because it was too big. I removed it, bent it a little using some force and a breaker bar, and I now have an engine cover that will stay up. So, the climax? I dropped a damn 7mm wrench into the engine and I cant find it. I did find 2 bolts, a loose ground wire, and a part about the size of a fuel filter just hanging in the back of the engine bay, left side. It looks like a small cylinder with a white nipple on top, rubber hoses coming out of it,
Phone was dead so I couldnt get a pic, but I will post soon.
