Fast fact: Geo Storm is among the few cars with it's single pipe on the same side as the fuel cap.

For those who like to live dangerously?

Look at that POWER PLANT



Yes, that is a lawn mower battery

Correction, that is a Miata battery. Part number MT-MX-5

WITH A Rough Country lift kit!

Had a sticker left over from a lift kit. IDGAF

No extra HP from that sticker, but it basically makes it Trail Rated^TM.

Bubbling back window tint is very on brand for Geo Storm.

Today's Storm report:

Engine oil & filter
Coolant flush & new thermostat
Transmission oil & filter
Serpentine belts
Left CV axle
Put a foam yoga block under the battery
Inspected the brakes all around
Lubed the front calipers with new slide pins and bushings



Rot0rs are a bit rusty, but the pads look good.
I just lubed everything up and threw it back together.

Nice! Might be a pretty good transportation car.

A transportation car?
I hope so. I didn't plan on entering it into any car shows.

Oh, and the original GEO stereo with cassette player works perfectly. I need to find my old cassette tapes!

Might have a cassette copy of Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band.  No cassette player though.

I think I have that tape, too.

[FoMoJo]

I think I have that tape, too.

Used to blast it full volume in my '78 Bronco.  Some pretty good acoustics in that old car/truck.

Even though I just put new serpentine belt s on it, I decided to go ahead and do the timing belt today. Good thing, too. That old belt had chunks missing.

I was goning to get Federal SS-595 tires, but I got a good deal on a set of Ohtsu FP7000s through my shop. Coming today.

Found out Storm is a total lemon. The AC system is empty, and the washer pump doesn't't work.

[Laconian]

Seems like the expected amount of lemon-ness for a car of Storm's age..

Roll down the windows and drive faster. Carry a spray bottle, washer pumps are for the weak.

Yeah, I'll just carry a mop and a bucket.

Also found one of the licence plate lights is out. FUCK WHAT A PIECE OF SHIT CAR.

It also has a small exhaust leak. That is annoying. I'll just cut off the exhaust and run a straight pipe out the side.

You better fix that. It's a favorite excuse for the police to pull you over and check your license.

They'll pull over The Storm because it's a red sports car, and it will be speeding everywhere it goes.

Look at where The Storm was originally purchased.

Tires are delayed, so I took my wheels home to paint them.

What colour!?!?!?!?!?
Black? Silver? Purple?

[Eye of the Tiger]

Maybe I could strip the paint off and intentionally rust them. Or polish the steel.

[Eye of the Tiger]

Bronze?
