Our array of tools
Then it was time to cut!
then we decided a cut off wheel was MUCH faster.
And nick realized his sweatshirt was much better ON him. lol
Got bored. walked outside and snapped a pic
Came back in to see more progress
BAM one spring cut!
threw the newly cut spring in and let it down to check the height.
He started working on the other side and i got bored so i went and got my s13.
Found that exhaust leak. Lol! There was an exhaust temp sensor stock. and its no where in my car. so i need to plug up this hole some how
Now the other spring is ready to come out
Got bored again and snapped another random shot.
Then thought to my self. OMG THE PIZZA! (See, i had put a few slices in the toaster like 20 min ago) And i hate burnt food. but it was just crispy enough to be amazing! Hahah!
Back to cars. the spring was stuck, so we grabbed the hammer!
Once again, another shot taken out of boredom
This is when the day went to hell. I was rolling my car out of the garage so i could jump start it. I had the door open so i could push it with my foot, and by the time i looked back and grabbed the door to shut it, it was too late. the door hit the ladder and then the window and glass went EVERYHWERE!!!!!!!!!!! Like everywhere. it was crazzzzy
Pulled the car out so i could clean up the mess
This was only like half of it too.
Well i got over that and went back to the mustang. In all that chaos nick somehow slapped the passenger side together and let it down. i gotta say it sits nice.
Then as if the s13 wasnt already annoying me today. Took it for a spin. and BAM!!! Some crazy noise, and the car isnt moving. It wouldnt move in any gear. I look under it thinking maybe it was the driveshaft. everything looks fine. so i go to roll it down a hill, and CLUNK CLUNK! Something hits the undeaneath of the car. at this point i was convinced it was the driveshaft. i look under the car and there it is, lying on the ground. so i pull it to the side of the road super slow as the drive shaft drags along the asfault. i walk back to where it first broke, and find 4 broken fender bolts. I was like WTF?!?!?! Are u kidding me. who ever had the car before me held the driveshaft together with fucking fender bolts. *WTF FACEPALM* Luckily it was just that and not the driveshaft it self. So i walked back home, grabbed some bolts i had lying around (extras from the like 500 i bought for the exhaust) drove over there, threw 2 bolts in then coasted it to my neighbors down the street, and borrowed their jack and put the other bolt in there and tightened it up the best i could. After that i made it home easily. but imma have to get some grade 8 bolts for that now. lol.
a pic of the stupid fender bolts.
K. Enough problems!!! Time to finish up the mustang.
Cut the rear's and slapped it back together!!!
Drove it back to his house, and were done for the night!
So the day had its problems, and hard times. but what ever. it turned out good. so the s13 broke, i'd wrather the drive shaft break here then on the real road some time or something. and the window, what ever. no biggie. I already found a cheap replacment. haha.
