    I am in the springs all the time. The wifes family lives down there. though i dont bring the corrado that often. I hope to get more involved with 719. I want to get myself a rado that i can turn into a trailer. i have always been amazed by that white one. love it.

    Hit a big rock on 225 at Parker last Thursday. Tore the sidewall of my 195/45/15's in two spots from the tread to the wheel. Ebay'd a new tire, it got here yesterday, had it mounted today, and will get my car back on the road tomorrow. Hope I don't need an alignment.

    Installed the new speedo cable and gasket. Stripped the threads in the tranny for the mounting bolt. Tapped the hole to a M7 1.0 and bought a new bolt. Everything is holding after a quick drive, no leaks yet. Thanks for the help rcortez13!

    Installed newly recovered headliner, finally. Not perfect, but much better than the stock quitter from before. Also installed black visors, center console, sunroof handle, smoked dome light, black C pillars, and black rear window trim piece to match.

    Now need to recover the sunroof panel.
