So the left rear brake caliper siezed on the 86 so I have had to rip it apart in my garage, I have had it rebuilt but I won't have the time to get it back on the road for at least a couple of months. The reason for that is I almost have my '73 Pontiac back on the road and I really want to focus on that car right now it's seen some major upgrades in the last year, it's nowhere near where I want it to be but it should be able to be used daily so I can't wait!. I said I will try to post up some pics and some commissions I have had done, I still am I just need more than 5 min to myself lol, on that note what's everyone else working on I know quite a few of my fur friends here are gear heads

Waiting for the weather to warm/ dry up a bit here, but as they have been using roadsalt here (Texas) I've been avoiding driving my car. need to continue saving up for a brake swap (Drums to discs) on the daily, fix a fuel leak on one, and continue on the engine for the "copcar"
drum to discs, it does help allot, the Pontiac I have is a '73 Lemans coupe, I have had that thing forever, rebuilt the topend new intake manifold and carb., I got lucky and found one with factory discs in the front, the upgrade I got for it are prostop drilled/slotted rotors and ebc red pads, I don't think she'll stop a hole lot better but I shouldn't have any fade anymore trying to panic stop a two ton Pontiac on California freeways is probably the scariest thing I've done in a car lol. What kind of car are you doing this swap on?

=3 Lookin forward to it^^ Its coming along pretty good. Just did an entire revamp on the stereo system. Got LED headlights in it now. Went to Orlando over the weekend and swapped in the rear axle from a 2004 Scion xA. Bigger rear brakes, wider track, and a built in sway bar. The Echo never had one. I wanna do a manual swap this year.

Right now I'm waiting to get hired so I can get driver's ed, buy a cheap S140 Aristo/GS300 (and wheels too), and save for a couple car shows and Midwest FurFest.
