Shift knobs

 

Found this great condition UCF20 shift knob for a great price!  The one in the LS has a crack down the wood grain.0313150025a 0313150025 0313150024d
The day after I listed the one above forsale to see if I could profit. This aftermarket shorter shift knob from a Canadian car was listed.   I bought it. haha.  It seems to be painted or hydrodipped not real wood grain. 0313150024c 0313150024b 0313150024a 0313150024 0313150023

Brakes

Found a powerstop brake kit for cheap on eBay. Not the best brake rotors out there but the casting looks very good compared to other brands I’ve came across in the past.

Found my new wheels

 

Lowenhart LD-1   18×10 -9  square.    Test fit the rear and it pokes.  Need more low and wider tire and some negative camber should look good.

Made space for it to park in the garage.

Found a good deal on entire upper intake manifold assembly less throttle body.  Future of directport nitrous? or just polished?

hanged rear upper arms since the ball joints were bad.

Got back to NC and the rear wheel bearings went out.  Guess undoing the axles for the first time EVER caused some damage.  I swear I shot the axle nut in tight.. =(

Finally put the car cover on after a while of sitting. Tired of seeing it broken.

Ordered the entire rear assemblies.  After driving from KC to NC I think the rear hubs were toast. LOL.  Saved a little bit from not buying new aftermarket hubs to press into bearings.. These wheel bearings seem to be alright.
