put the idler arm on, finished putting the dash back together after heater core replacement, popping the fist dents after dealing with a craptastic fuel pump failure, and currently pulling the bent bumper off it (been bent since we bought it) so i can straighten it and knock the dents out of it.[torques bits why of all things torques bits to hold the bumper on...]
Been away from the forum for a little while so here's a brief update
Decided to finally finish debagdeing and stripping the stuff on the sides
Painted the chrome Grille Black
AC clutch crapped out this weekend so today i said to hell with my AC, never use it anyway. Bought a bypass pulley from Advance Auto and pulled the compressor and the accumulator taking the rest out in the next few days.
Bought some old camaro rims, getting them ready for paint tomorrow

Windshield wipers crapped out in Monday evening's rain... Had to keep turning them on and off to get them to work.
Found Kyle's excellent post on repairing the WW circuit board. Touched up the main solder joints, even though I didn't see any cracks. I think the problem was grease on the spring-loaded contacts to the gear mechanism. Cleaned them up good, put it back together and it's working fine so far.
1/2 hour's work and a lot of money saved!

Not today, but most recently, a ported 12" subwoofer from Elemental Design along with a JL amp. Elemental Designs: Car Stereo, Home Speakers, Electronics
Also, recently, cross-drilled & dimpled rotors from BrakePerformance.
Both mods have severely improved my day-to-day driving!
