What have you done to your DeLorean today?

Put 2 dents in the truck lid and busted my windshield. Drove the the car 300 mi RT to DMCMW. Fixed a failed Spax Front shock upper bushing and crown washer. Got the FIRST look at the New Fiberglass Front Facia. An Excellent Reproduction and a perfect fit to the car. Can't wait to see one fully Painted.

Other than that, not much.

Oh no, how did that happen? Good thing there's new windshields on the way

My wife left for work this morning and as the garage door stopped after closing I hear a crash in the garage. I go to investigate and find a box of left over Pieces from a Composite railing kit laying on the hood. It had fallen off an 8 ft high storage shelf. They had been up there about 2 years. I guess and over time of moving things around on the shelf and Vibration from the The garage door, they shifted around unbenouced too me and decided to fall this morning. The interesting thing is that I had backed the car into the garage yesterday. The first time I'd done that all year. Otherwise it would have hit the top center of the louvre. I would have rather had that happen and get new louver that have to go through fixing the hood AGAIN. I had the whole car fixed and re-grained by Chris Nicholson a year ago.

Oh man, that really sucks. Sorry to hear it. A similar thing happened to my daily driver a few months ago, but it was a bunch of paint cans that fell from the 8' high shelf. That was an ugly mess that *really* would have ruined the D. Good luck getting it cleaned up!

3? Don't you want to replace tires in sets of 2 or 4?

Nice! How did it go? Was it worth all the work involved?

You'd think so, wouldn't you?

One of my fronts had sidewall damage. The other is fine (they're both fairly new). Both the rears are being replaced.

So that adds up to three. It's weird, I know.

I literally just finished installing a set of the stainless fuel lines from the UK because I noticed one was leaking. I also seem to have lost the adjustment screw plug, so a bobber is now taking its place.
