Things are heating up
It's been a slooow winter. It's cold out, I have no garage and work has really been demanding within the past few months. No time for cars except on the weekends but even then, wedding planning, work or other things have taken our time away from us.
But lately, I've been noticing that we have finally turned the corner with winter. The sun stays up past 5pm FINALLY. It was 70ยบ just the other day and the bug has hit me moding HARD early this year. What started with plans to finally finish Roxy has now snowballed into a mixture of wedding, Roxy and now Dara getting a little bit of attention for the warmer months.
I may have to call this blog the Roxy and Dara show for a few months, or at least until I get Dara finished with a few surprises that are coming down the road. I guess it all started when we took her down south and she took a shit on us in the middle of the highway. Ever since I started working on project cars, Dara has taken a backseat to all of them. Sure she had decent wheels but when I popped her hood open two months ago to do some plugs and wires, I was surprised at how dirty it was. I literally hadn't cleaned or detailed her in years.
So there ya go. Now she's getting some surprises soon, has a set of killer wheels just waiting for her and I also decided to upgrade her stereo a bit to match her upcoming look a bit better.
I had a craving for a new tool so I could make a sub box. It's hard living in a condo sometimes...
Due to the cold, we don't work on cars anymore. Now we just go out drinking with weird asian girls.
With awesome tattoos on their feet. (The right foot had "woohoo!".
A few days later, while kate was out shopping, I went to sears and snuck a table saw home and made a box.
Then I cut a hole for a lil' JL 8".
A lil' sealer here and there...
Oh snap! Like ya didn't see that coming.
Sneaky sneaky.
Jacks in the back.
Viola. Hit's harder than an angry stepfather.
Stay tuned for more!
