It's taken a little over 3 years, I've done most of the work myself but I'm on the home stretch now. Just need to get it painted and install the interior. I'm hoping to have it ready for the Daytona Turkey Run Car Show that starts Thanksgiving Day - But that is probably being a little optimistic! Here's the link to my thread in the Third Gen Section: https://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=400837

My wife is coming out of a Kia Soul that has served us extremely well. Here in AZ, Souls are pretty common now, no longer quirky. Today will probably be the last day she drives it regularly. I'll clean it up and put it up for sale.
My son seems bummed as the Soul was the last vehicle we owned that was brought out here from Maryland when we moved.

Thats a very generous offer, and while tempting, I'm not big on driving others folks hot rods....
I understand the trust factor, I could replace anything damaged, but that's your baby.... I don't ever want to be that guy..... Call me weird.... I'm thrilled with a ride....

Eventful day here. Plan was to do laundry, make some brownies & straighten the moving mess to get ready for my daughter who was coming home for her class reunion. Mike was taking the truck to get brake pads & waiting for our driveway ramps to be delivered (for the 4th day in a row). He got a call that more documents were needed for our home buying process requiring me to bring him some things. In the meantime he got a call that the rotors on the truck were rusted & in terrible shape & the repair was $750. On my way to take him the documents, when I started Ruby she was running really rough then the check engine light came on. When I got there I checked under the hood & the plexi on my CAI intake top had come of & was dangling over the air filter. I was able to put it back together & get home but not sure it will stay. I contacted CAI inc to try for a solution.
But Jina is home & this day is winding down. Tomorrow is a new day.

A buddy and I were to drive up to Sedona today and spend the weekend up there. The Sedona Car Club is having their annual car show this weekend. However, my buddy is under doctor's orders to rest and heal after his recent surgery. So I will be staying home this weekend, which I really don't mind. Have to prepare the Kia Soul to sell, and my HHR is filthy. Garage is too. My buddy has at least a week or so to heal up. Have a great weekend everyone!

Well Jina's Class Reunion went well & she had fun. She is not feeling well today though with her Sjogren's Syndrone acting up on top of female issues. Packing is kicking my butt but at least this time moving there is no hurry & I can just stop when I'm tired. More to pack tomorrow,.……& the next day & the next...………….you get it. But an awful lot has already been packed or gotten rid of. Just amazed at the crap you accumulate in 30years plus some stuff from the 30 years before that. But no more unexpected expenses & things seem to be staying on track for the house purchase.
Hope everyone had a nice weekend.

So it's a good thing I did not drive up to Sedona! Good news, sold the Kia Soul! Bad news, had another acute kidney stone episode, ended up in the ER! I thought I was done with these. :(
