Old people are weird. 

I was going to make a post about how I found a free trailer sitting a block from my house and triumphantly pulled it home on my shoulder. But instead have this video of me after I realized why it was free.

Went to look at that RSX Type-S with my cousin today and it did not disappoint. Very mechanical solid, very clean, and the seller just seemed like a very honest nice guy who was also a mechanic engineer. So he probably wasn’t an idiot. The car drove like brand new. We found 3, no 4 issues which for a cheap car we’re…

Just Rolled Into The Driveway. Had to limp the Rabbit home today after the front right wheelbearing gave up the ghost. It wasn’t very fun but at least the weather was nice and the top was down. I should have seen it coming. In the two(three?) weeks I’ve owned the car I’ve had to start driving with the steering wheel…

Some aren’t. Cabriolet rubber seals are extra not cheap. This is JUST the smoker window seals. A full window seal kit is about 2 grand.

Went to the my favorite bar/restaurant and this was sitting near by, had to run over and get pics. I was kinda sad that I couldn’t get the Rabbit in frame with it. The Rabbit is parked right behind my father in law’s big ass Sprinter Bluetech It had maps, and various other road trip stuff I the back seat so some one…

LSPR2018 dates have been announced. Much Excited.

One thing I’ve always wanted to do but never have us make a skateboard wheel shift knob. So today was the day.

I just discovered that I you can fold the rear seats on the Rabbit Cabriolet. I did not expect this at all. Sorry about the terrible photo. Also my spare is a GTI snowflake, which makes me sad that I don’t have 4 more of them.

Got an OEM key for the Rabbit. It had some mk3 style replacements. Found this Mk1 key on eBay for under 20 bucks, got it cut for free at the hardware store.

She’s in the club now. Also got the nasty purple tint off the smoker window that felt good. 

Must have been a popular wheel back in the day.

I might be going to look at a car with my wife’s cousin. It’s his first car, he’s been driving the family 2008ish Impala, but hasn’t had a car off his own. Thankfully he wants a manual, and he found something pretty cool.

two orange and very small cars. I’ll keep mine.

The Rabbit went bumperless last night. I like the look as much as I thought I would, which is to say, quite a bit. I’ll be taking the front off as well, as soon as I figure out where/how/what to do with the blinkers.

I read the price on this as 1300, and felt pretty big buyers remorse about the Rabbit. Don’t get me wrong Veronica means a lot to me, but if I could pick up a Del Sol this clean for that price I wouldn’t hesitate.
