well today i worked on the 94civic....
replaced the stock speedo from my ex cluster from another dx cluster to fix the messed up speedometer... so far looks like it works but cars still on jackstands so was only a few seconds of testing BUT it did work when i tried it.LOL

also pulled the front upper control arms and waiting till tomorow when i SHOULD get my WICKED adjustable upper arms....


and also just got a call this afternnon from dealership saying they did find some bolts that ive had ordered for like a week now and HOPEFULLY he said they will be thier either thursday or friday.... I HOPE SOON!!!!!! cause i wanna get this 94back on the road and aligned right!


also going to TRY to take back the new upper control arm i bought from napa autoparts and HOPEFULLY they will take it back and ill have my 75bucks back.... I HOPE they will take it back no problems....LOL then i can replace the one slightly worn joint on the front steering...

Took it to the shop to have my seats put in, headlights aimed, oil changed, and tires maybe swapped/maybe aligned.

It's a lot, but my dad is real good friends with the owner so I might have it back tomorrow!

Ordered some seat covers, and a new steering wheel with a removable hub (I'm tired of not having some kind of way to get the wheel out of the way enough to slide in and out without whacking my right knee).

The first two could have easily been done at home, the third could have been done if you have jack stands or ramps, but the fourth is the only one you really needed to take it to the shop for

Started it up while I did my morning walk through on my company car and my wife's CR-V. Shut it off. Moving tomorrow, so it'll actually get driven.


Thinking I might sell it as is soon if I don't start driving it more often.

Looks good a2b!

NOTHING today since I still don't have her back. I guess you never really know what a great thing a car is to have until you don't have it. Riding the bus home blew :-/. If I get it back tomorrow (they replaced the front ball joint, installed my seats, aimed my headlights, and rotated/aligned the tires) I plan on driving it around a lot!
