Sunday night, I ordered the 35 sq. ft. RAAMat kit and two of the 14 sq. ft. stick-on insulation kits, along with a bunch of stuff from OMS (brake lines, caliper kit, some switches, etc). The plan is to get the interior Rust Bullet'd and seam sealed this weekend, then the RAAMat stuff next weekend. Then I can run the electrics and just put new stuff back into the car from here on out. Once I get the electrics in, I'll work toward actually starting the car and getting the brakes done. I know I've been chomping at the bit to fire it up, but realized there were a lot of things I needed to get done first so I don't have to undo and redo them after I've gotten the car running. Ya know, I never thought I'd get to this point, but there's really no more major repair stuff left to do on the car - only minor restoration stuff on various parts as well as body work are left.
I did pick up a new pooch from the pound last night. We saw his sad little face on Pet Finder the other night and couldn't resist. He was dumped at the pound as a stray, so we don't even know his 'real' name or anything. So far, so good though - he could care less about the cats (aside from wanting to make friends) and seems like he's just happy to not be on his own anymore... so he's settling in just fine and his new name is 'Eddie.' My wife decided since I love Van Halen so much, to name him 'Eddie Van Hansen.' Pee-yew... but, gotta call him something I guess. (I was thinking about 'Nubby' since his tail's docked, but didn't speak up quickly enough apparently).
Anyway, here's the mugshots from the Pet Finder site:
Who could resist this sad little face?
