Another week ticking away, yesterday went by fast enough, nothing really eventful, work, class, dinner, TV, sleep. Pretty much sums up everything, although I did wash my jeans last night. I think that it has been right over 1 year, they didn’t smell bad but I thought they felt a little itchy; so time for a bath.
They look like a different pair of pants, much more “blue” the little lines are very prominent… whatever, they are just jeans….
Drove the bus again today… everything seems to be in working order. I am not satisfied with the breaks. I am sure that that has to be with the adjustment of the pads and also the leaking axle seals…. Either tonight or tomorrow night I plan on taking care of that. It’s fun to drive, a totally different feel. The gearing is really strange, I think that I will eventually need to put a larger engine in it or change the transmission to one from a bug. That’s a ways off though; right now it’s time to enjoy all my hard work.
Speaking of hard work the jobs never done, here is what’s next;
-Change bearing caps, axle seals, and adjust rear breaks.
-Fix the horn wire, easy but need to be done
-Fix the fuel gauge; I broke this when running a new wire from the ignition to the coil.
-Check the trans fluid
-I NEED to get this thing registered… uuuggggg RED-TAPE!
-Need to find two lug nuts that are not messed up
Un-important tasks are as follows;
-Swap speakers from the cruiser to the bus
-Continue tackling the body work
-I want 2 lights on the bumper… I know, I know I have a thing for lights…
-flip the vw logo up front so it is upside down….
