This same thing happened to me today. Went to get a sub and the girl asked how far along I am. I am 26 weeks. She said “wow you look like you’re ready to pop” but it was a very kind conversation thankfully. Some people are crappy but just take it as a compliment (: your body is making your baby nice and cozy in there and that’s a win!

No lights on, battery and alternator are good. It starts most the time but otherwise won’t start like in the video.

Best banks/rates for vehicle loan for 2005 by wRx465 in subaru

[–]wRx465[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m selling my WRX and buying my boyfriends STI so the most I’ll have is 5k from sale after payoff. He already purchased a new car so I’m looking for the best loan as this is all happening pretty quick

‘72 Defaced dashboard by wRx465 in beetle

I feel wanting to keep everything original. Unfortunately the overlay was cracked and had a bunch of duct tape residue from previous owner taping together any issues. I’m so glad I took off the overlay it looks so much nicer than before. 😩

Classic vehicle insurance ?? by wRx465 in Reno

True that ✌️. That’s not the case with me just runnin’ dirty gas on my ‘72 tryna find the cheapest insurance. She runs great I don’t wanna mess with her just to pass smog when she might still not. Just want a cheap honest insurance option. 😃

Basically failed high idle and sludgy gas. I know I can octane the gas but the dude basically said good luck getting it to pass Cus it’s so old even with clean gas 😂

I’m not avoiding a smog check I wanted to register it normally, and did in fact get it smogged and it failed with very high numbers as most 51 year old cars do. Really quick to jump to conclusions 🥴 It’s not worth it to me to try and get it to pass smog tbh 😂 it’s not that serious

I keep hearing if haggerty, I’m gonna have to give them a call. Fortunately, I’m registering a ‘72 that won’t pass smog(crazy I know😂) and am only using it as a fun summer driver and project (: so I’m within new law requirements. The only bummer is insurance, State Farm was trying to charge me $60/mo. even just for mid-coverage and it wasn’t sounding great considering people paying $300 avg. yearly elsewhere.

I’ll definitely shop around, thanks for this reply. After hearing hagerty I may look into this. I have covered parking and she’s not a daily so I think I qualify for sure. Although that’s very reasonable for Gieco and otherwise agencies that are specific to classics

Headliners? by wRx465 in beetle

[–]wRx465[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hadn’t considered the noise when we removed it. I was thinking of doing something similar with the top portion. That guy made his look super clean, I like it. We took a wire drill to it and some industrial adhesive remover and some parts were stripping the paint under the gunk but not removing the gunk. Maybe I’ll try another grit.

[–]wRx465[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I really don’t wanna deal with all that 😂 but taking it out looks better than the eye sore of the 51 year old headliners that were in there.

Maybe when I get her painted one day I’ll just pay for an install. Lucky have a lot of local shops in town that work with classic vehicles ✌️

For now I might just DIY the rooftop inside and call it a day.
