I love the smell of fresh parts in the morning...

Finally getting around to some work that has been back-burner for a while and I'm really looking forward to it.

When I get home this weekend, I have all-new weather seals for the 951 which will finally put an end to that pesky intermittent sunroof leak and the cracking rubber on the driver's door.

The next time I'm home I should have new brakes for the S70 waiting for me; larger rotors and more aggressive pads should increase the initial bite which would eliminate my only minor complaint about the car. There will also be a new fog light to finally replace the one that shattered about 18 months ago. I figured that as long as I was ordering brakes, I might as well tack that onto the order as well.

With any luck, I will also have this waiting for me the next time I'm home. Whether it works well as a rollbar or not, the consensus among everyone who has used it is that it stiffens the chassis quite nicely, so it should help as I move towards a more aggressive setup for the car.

Ahh, good times getting greasy. :)

Yes! Sounds like fun times are coming for you ZV.

I've got new tires coming for my wife's Volvo this week. Yokohama S.Drives
Installed a keyless entry on my Grand Marquis last weekend, rear brakes, wheels/tires, and paint the weekend before.
Exhuast, flywheel, and fuel lines on my Beetle this weekend.

Sounds like a fantastic weekend ahead of you. Few things are more rewarding than working on a car.
