Explorer is almost mine. It's in
paperwork hell. I already got leaf springs, planning on a full front end rebuild, 2 inch shackle kit, and air adjust struts since apparently I need to haul about five tons of rock back to the house. I may take my welder out and fortify the rear strut mounts too. Pics will come, I've been so bad with it but making a ton of progress.

Rx8 is running well with my brother at the helm, it's no longer mine. He loves it just as I did and that's pretty much all I wanted. He is expecting a baby soon and may sell it, but might not. Baby may be a little wankler.
Sebring is gone. Sold to a mechanic! He appreciated the work I did and I got a bit of cash, he got a good deal so we are all happy.
I'm down to 2 cars. This is weird.

Rust seems to be a constant problem on the explorer, luckily not much on the frame but here are the strut sleeves for example...

Saturn has been misfiring on 4 lately after a jump this winter...I cleaned all the ground points I could find and totally disassembled and reassembled the fuse and relay box. No more misfire! cautiously optimistic?
