Default What have you done to your C4 today?

What did you do to/with your C4 today? doesn't have to be big.

Today I put the new (to me) fiberglass top on it only had to adjust one bracket.

I adjusted the pass wiper arm as it sat up too high on the windshield.

I put an undamaged wire mesh debris sheild over the wiper transmission access.

Thats it what'd you do?

P.S. anyday you read this post IS today.

  1. Backed it out of the garage
  2. Got riding mower out, cut grass
  3. Drove it back into the garage.

This excitement is just too much

Nothing this weekend, nothing last weekend, and more than likely, nothing next weekend.

Nothin'

It's sitting in the garage, covered.

I tuned up the wife's Honduh though.
First time in many, many years I had to set the points gap.

Today, I fixed my broken cigarette lighter. It works great now!
And I fixed the fiberglass on the underside of the hood, where I left a tool and caused a crack. I ended up cutting out about 6 inchs long, by 1 inch wide slit. Then I got fiberglass repair puddy, put it on there shaped it. Let it cure. Sanded it down so it's smooth. Put a second round of puddy on to hit some miss spots. Cured. Sanded, and painted.

Now it's like new.

Took it out to put air in the tires, had lunch, ran a few errands, then came home to watch Bump Day of the Indy 500. Since I had it in a show yesterday, there wasn't much else to do to the Vert.

Had mine out with the top down yesterday. The weather was not nice today so I applied leather conditioner to the seats, and cleaned the car.
