  • Special thanks to my Dad for helping so much with the groundwork and shed. Breaking up the rocks was hard work... at least I didn't have to break up an entire slab!
    Plenty has been going on, but I've only picked up a potato to take the odd still. Here's an update.

Makes me ashamed how I've been procrastinating for months just fitting some new calipers on my S13 lol.

From time to time, be sure to check with Cardo for all the latest dad jokes.😉 The new garage looks nice, especially the lighting. The brighter the better, imo. Great to see those suspension bits go on and have the car rolling again. Thanks for the update, man. Have a good one.
