Saw this '91 Legacy wagon in the local classifieds. A luxurious bed like this would only take a day to build, and I'll bet you could fit a hot plate and chamber pot under that classy pad..

When I first taking the wagon to the track, I carried a thermarest backpacking pad & a pillow. I'd crawl in the back leaving the tailgate open and take a nap between sessions. Later, I upgraded to a tent and cot.

 

I got ragged about it all the time. However, at the end of the day, when I still running and everyone else was tired, it always paid off in longer sessions for me.

Seems to me, that's how I ended up in the spot. This weekend is set aside for clearing a space in the garage to get the car inside. MrTris has an engine hoist & stand to loan, so need to get that picked up. Then I can pull it in

 

Still cleaning garage. This may actually be the hardest part of this whole process.

Cam gear bolts - this sucks:

We just ran out of the NON avcs bolts. We do not expect to have these back in stock until the 1st of the year. Once they are back in stock this order will ship. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

 

You mean the ones from TiC? I have a set in the shelf. Can ship em to you, just ship me yours when you get them?

 

They suck ass at keeping those on the shelf. Worse than me at keeping BP kits on the shelf. They'll sure take your money in the meantime tho :spin:

"Bullet-proof" your OEM TMIC! <<Buy your kit here>>

 

Not currently in stock :(

Reminds me of Top gear when the 3 lived in their cars for the journey. I believe Hammond had the Bug eye.

 

 

Random in 3..2..1.

 

I think that is a 2003.5 Mazda MP5 on the right.

Non avcs bolts, the ones without the hole in 'em, can be had from the dealership, there's a post with the pn around here some where..

 

Here is the post with the part number:

However, it appears these are too short? See here:

Also, is there any way we know the hardness/grade of the bolt is the same? I wouldn't want to have a massive failure and find out it was due to saving money on such a crucial thing.

Thanks for doing the legwork on that.

 

I have the OEM bolts in my drawer at work, I'll send em off to Tacoma Screw and see what they can come up with.

Also... Beer, I want at least mid grade. None of this Busch lite crap. Redhook,deschutes,Elysian,etc or better.

 

My vote is Redhook ESB!

 

Any interest in making it a light/finger food potluck so Mrs boxkita doesn't have to cook or otherwise have an opportunity to poison us and/or him?
