Played with the Mazda rental pretending it was my T/A. Thank god it has a slap stick and can hit in excess of 150. Not so 'Thank god'.. it gets the same mileage as my T/A with only 4 cylinders.

Hey.. I guess we can call LS cars 'economy cars' now since that's what they list an '11 Mazda3 as?

On topic..

Finally got Fed Ex tracking to find my WS6 stick. I'll give them the benefit of it being prepped to ship on a sunday. Also hammering out details for new filler panel decals on my bird to match my new old OEM stock Sport Gold door emblems.

Damn miracle that I found some, another that the local dealership was able to track a set down and have them drop shipped to the body shop. o_O

I understand about the drive. We did have Basham drive up from Southern IN, it took him a bit under 3 to get to Indy. Also had BlackTAWS6, he is from Palitine IL, just over the border.

With a 6 speed! They made some like that.

I had my car detailed Saturday at a local car wash, somehow they got the calipers shiny and silver again.
For my '68 Le Mans, I tested/painted a Pontiac hood tach, to install this week.

I got my FRC's done finally. Put the lettering on last night. Thx Afterthoughts Auto.

I've letting them sit over night to make sure they stick before I throw them under the hood. I did have one small issue. On the passenger side I guess I didn't cut enough of the FRC like others have done and the strips that were sent didn't go all the way to the back of the cover. I'm short by 3". Once installed you can't see them easy, but I know it's there (well now so those everyone else :sillyme:)

I also got my new shift knob installed and my new etched fuse box covers (emblem pros) are on the way. :woo:

I'll post pics after install.

Watched some videos with the wife on some guys scaring people with a train horn on their Scion. That got me looking up train horns for the T/A. Wife then said, "I think the truck air horn you have on the T/A is loud enough." I doubted her and we had a friendly argument, so we went outside to test it. I flipped the switch to the air compressor for the horn, waited 2 minutes, and let the wife hit the horn while I stood in front of the car. GOD DAMN...I never realized how loud that thing is...I don't think I need a replacement :lol:

Loaded my WS6 on a trailer to take it the garage to have the transmission rebuilt. After loading it I noticed a nice sized fluid leak where it was parked. Looked like oil. Not good.

I lent my WS6 to my dad today, so I could take his Buick in to work and fix it. First time he's driven a stick shift in 15 years or more, I'm sure. He said he was gonna go pick up chicks :lol:

Loaded it in the trailer so we can head to the track this weekend.

Scott, if your question is directed to me, I plan to give it a little "sswt00ss" treatment and then try to flip it. it needs a few little items, but it's a very solid car. honestly, i'd love to keep it, put a TA hatch on it and then the modified spoiler i worked on thats up above the garage. no matter what it will stay stock except for maybe a hurst shifter and catback.
