[QUOTE=KernowDiscovery;583576]... or maybe I went to Central with YOUR parents.

 

Or it may just be my eyes...

Had a car at the Frankenmuth car show this past summer, wife bought me a white logo T shirt from the show, asked her why didn't she buy me a green one instead, since I'm a slob and white does me no favors, and she said...they didn't have green, the only other color was grey. A short discussion about me "seeing" a green ones pursued, and I'm sure they have some. So, we walked over to the booth and she exchanged my white shirt for a grey, my eyes say green, shirt. The lady at the booth agreed with my wife, naturally...lol, but the color is still a debateable discussion everytime it makes an appearance...lol.

Anyhow, blue was my wife's first chioce as a color...but the one we checked out in Lansing had to many issues.

[QUOTE=NickAdams;583649]maybe but nothing surprises me anymore...

 

Welcome from a Grand Rapids native. Congrats on owning two. My wife has me restricted to one...

 

Well you really chugged the Kool-aid, welcome aboard

You look like your off to a really good start.

 

Trans. out of the 01. 03 waiting patiently.



Swapped bays...

Trans. in the 01 and 03 is under the engine hoist. All systems are go, as soon as the front driveshaft gets here. I'd take the one off the 03, but it lost its balance weight a couple days ago.



Jumped in with both feet on these things and barely made a ripple, straight to the bottom...no one even had a clue where to throw the life preserver...lol.

Used to only be a full time mechanic at work, but having these two LR's has turned me into a full time mechanic here, too. Actually, the transmission job went pretty smoothly. Now, if the engine rebuild goes nearly as nice...life will not be to bad.

Took my Discovery for a spin tonight, just getting a feeling for the new/used trans. and checking fluid levels. Everything went pretty well, until, I went to lower the arm rest...that wasn't there. I'm like???

Came in the house and told my wife that my Discovery doesn't have an arm rests like hers.

She says, "That's what the SD stands for on yours...Shi**y Discovery." "Mine is a HSE...High Society Edition".

Darn wife's anyway...

Brian.

 

SD maybe, but you'll get the last laugh when her sunroof's begin to leak.

 

Yes, that was another thing missing. Went to take a look at the "super" moon...and low and behold...no sunroof. I was like...what the ???...lol.

 

Could always swap in some leather seats and new door cards like I did. Then you have the best of both worlds. No sunroofs and SE/HSE interior!
