Started slapping the R380 back together. I didn't really do much to it. I pulled it apart to check the condition. It looked good so I cleaned things up and started reassembly.

And installed a SlickShift. Should have grabbed a pic before I greased it all up. Doh!

Red Green (tv show) would be so very proud of your seat repair.

That's a great price on those tires. What size did you get?

Trans must be in your basement or something, turned to cold here to do much in the garage.

Nice. Goes to show that just a tiny bit of experience goes a long way.

It is amazing how much time I spend just making sure I'm doing something the right way because I'm concerned about messing it up permanently or so deeply that it might require a tow to the shop.

Yeah that was pretty much my feeling. I poured over the schematics and asked lots of question on forums making sure I wasn't missing something before I started wailing on it with a hammer. 😉

New tires came in yesterday. Gonna be a bit before they get mounted though. I need to decide which set of wheels I want them on. I have a set of Castors, Deep Dish, and TWR wheels to choose from. The two latter sets currently have tires on them though. :/

I'm leaning towards that, or XD styled Castors.
