Don't feel bad man I think the only one that made it was Poncho. I ran around out in the sun with Bella and played Barbies with her

How's the ride coming along?

I'm having some serious clutch/hydraulics issues. It's pissing me off. I can drive the car just like normal until I get on it real hard, then the clutch pedal gets super hard to push in and won't disengage the damn clutch. I'm researching some causes on it now. I just bled the hydraulics for the umpteeenth time today. I'm thinking bad clutch master cylinder at this point.... This is really the only thing holding me back from dyno time/track time

Barbies lol..... Thanks for the laugh.

I tried catching up next to the guy in the black T/A I was running open cutouts the whole time and rolled through the croud for a bit with the cutouts dumped. I had people looking at me all over the place. Hey Mike right after i put the engine in my car the bar that goes from the clutch pedal to hydraulic's bent and broke. you might want to check that out

That looks like the black TA I saw parked. Had the T tops off and windows up. Must have passenger side window motor problems. You could see the tell tale finger prints from pulling the top of the window up.

Ya man, I'll get it figured out. I might just say screw it and buy a brand new clutch/PP/flywheel and adjustable Tick master cylinder. Looking at the Monster Stage III. Summer is coming up fast and I don't want to be on jackstands for a 6th year in a row.

LOL,,,, Barbie Vette, that's what Cody and Angii call all the C4's lol.....

Brandon, I checked the master, and it looks good from the outside. I think it might be the internals that are shot. ?

LOL I just had to replace both my p/w motors. FWIW, Autozone here in Vancouver has the motors for 52.99 each (without regulator). They even come with a lifetime warranty. I'm sure I'll be using that warranty for a LONG time haha...

Besides it sitting on the ground I think all he had done was a exhaust set up if I remember correctly. Phil would know for sure.
