Well it’s been a day off ups and downs for the car today.

1st I got a set of technostalgia tail lights a few months back. Shortly after install three of the afterburner leds went out in one light. So didn’t get much feedback from the manufacturer so I set out to repair myself. Believe it came out pretty good as you can see in pictures.

Second I was trying to get my new differential into the rear cradle to begin building up my rear suspension. Well picture kinda speaks for itself. A little in disbelief and heart broken but it is what it is I’ll move on.

Dude, I have been following your build. I have to say I am sorry, I feel your pain! Set backs happen but that is one I would never have expected!!!

On a side note, I found that if you load your pictures into paint and save them they will load into the forum right side up.

Don't give up and keep logging your process, I for one am rooting for you!!!

I don’t know I plan to get to the motor aspect of things after the suspension is done.

Thank you and yes it has been a set back but I’ll prevail in the end. Yeah I think I got the picture thing figured out now. If I crop my pictures ever so slightly they come out fine. Just gotta remember to do it lol

Do you ever come down to the city?
