Oh, and without camber plates, sitting on Steeda Sport springs, the toe is back into speck, the caster was already in spec, and the camber sits at only 0.1 out of spec, so good enough for me. I'm psyched!
Ha ha!! Awesome man!

I drove it to San Francisco yesterday (240 miles round trip) and averaged 21.8 MPH. Then I opened it up on an empty stretch of freeway on the way home. And that's as far as I'll go.

Dang, that's over ten hours. Must have been a boring drive.

(CLANK!) The excitement must have overtaken me. 21.8 MPG-which I don't think is too bad for a 5.0 with under 1,000 miles. My '73 VW got 23 mpg and I think it was good for 60hp.

Well regardless it looks nice. Wish I had enough money to get a Mach 1 when I bought my GT. I used to live in statesville, I thought I recognized that place. Lol

I was hit in the rear right side bumper. That looks to be the only damage. I'm working with them to see if they will get me a whole new bumper rather than fill this one. And I think they are going to

^ Looks great Gabe. I love white shift *****. My MGW is white and comes with that chrome nut. I do switch between both black and white MGW shift ***** thought.



I have done NOTHING with Marilyn this week Rain and busy-ness has kept me away from her. I was going to drive her this morning at 5 am going to the gym, but as I opened the 3rd stall garage, I was greeted with...drizzle. Closed door, took Portia instead. lol. Maybe this weekend.
