Tan's covered in the garage and Evergreen's outside getting rained on.

Seriously, I may have to get one of those condoms!
 
It's awake now from the winter nap, but I have a little "miss" and rough idle. It was fine and then I parked it for a bit while I went to a store. When I turned it back on it developed the "miss". That, on top of my broken driver's door handle are 2 little problems I have now. It's a bit of a pain to have to get in the passenger side and reach over to push the driver's door open and hot have it swing back closed!

Haha which works until the door brake breaks and the door hits the fender by opening too far. Haha

I was thinking the same about the cover!

I fixed my rough idle - changed coil #5 and the two O2 sensors past the converters. Runs like a scared rabbit!
 
Here's mine, with a couple of it's stablemates.

Nice! You need to light that shop up!
 
Mines in the garage, on jackstands. Waiting for me to put new rotors on after warping them from another Talladega Superspeedway run.
 
I finally got around to checking in on mine today, after having it sit for five months. My buddy said the front end was slammed, but he managed to get a jack under it get it off the ground before I got there, hence the front looks very high in these pics.

Got in and it started immediately, runs smooth as silk. The compressor ran about a minute and it was back to normal height. Hopefully it's just a slow leak in the bags, as I have a new set going on soon.

By the way, it felt damn weird sitting in it again after driving the new DD for this long. I wanted to check the temperature gauge after it had run for a while but couldn't see it, so went to turn on the lights and fiddled around with the turn signal stalk for a few seconds before remembering the headlight switch was on the dash LOL.
 
That's so awesome of your friend to let your m8 use that "bedroom" ;)

I usually store them in western states, one should be home this coming week though :D
 
i just wish i could throw all the mark VIII parts out on the driveway and park my car in my garage, most useless 2 car garage i have ever had, used parts sit inside and my cars sit outside, something is wrong here.
