That sucks. I had two 5 day weekends and worked from home the 2 days in between them.

And RU is off for a month. When do you graduate?

Just got back from Pa around 2:20 tis morning.

I have class tomorrow, last semester for my undergrad. I need to get the car running before then. All the gaskets and the coil pack is here. I suppose it is time to get crackin'. I need to figure out where my classes are too. I have no idea.

Still no stereo. Maybe by the end of the week I hope.

So I managed to get the manifold off and replaced that seal. Now am going to take the rest apart and try to access the spark plug rings and valve cover gaskets. Kevlo is going to try and stop by today and give me a hand. I assume his name is Kevin. I guess I will find out soon enough. I actually feel like I am making some progress now.

Man, what a pain in my d!ck. Got it done with Kevin's help. Now I need to get the strut tower bar back on so it is ready to go in the AM for school. I feel like my audio is never going to be finished. No radio FTG.

Remember, I took everything out in November to rebuild. Looks like another day cruizing to school and back with no music.

I have to do the brakes tonight too.

Oh, check this out, wifey wakes me up and tells me I left the garage door open last night. Sure as ****. Doesn't look like anything is missing though. Lucky we are. I wasn't able to go back to sleep though. Time for class.

Wasn't too busy for me. I just need to stop being a dummy and go to sleep at a decent hour. Sleeping 12:30-5:30 isn't enough.

I know some of you guys have glassed before. I have finished one and almost the other of the sail panels. Bondo has been sanded. I will post pics as soon as photobucket gets them uploaded.

I want to cover them in vinyl. Do I need to prep the bondo'd surface before I spray glue everywhere?

Vinyl shows EVERY imperfection. If you have even the slightest dip or raised surface, it will show through.

I'd rate leniency of materials in the following order (from least to most)
1. Paint
2. Vinyl
3. Suede
4. Carpet
