Welding rust is thirsty work. |

Ha, ha... welding rust is even thirstier work! (Edit: I read Johns reply as "welding is thirsty work"... and thought I was being funny adding the rust. However I now see that was his point all along!)
St. Ambroise is a local (montreal) brewery producing several fine ales. Montreal and Quebec in general is known for sweet Belgian styles that I really don't go for too much, but we have a few breweries making some great hoppy brews. I know St. Ambroise Pale is available in Ontario, so it might be elseswhere... Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 05/23/2011 08:36AM by Mad Matt F. |

Well I had a decent weekend on the Justy. Could have gone to spectate Defi, but this seemed like a more worthwhile endeavour if we're gonna try to make Pines!
The sub frames are all back in, as is the rear diff, and half shafts. The engine harness is back in, and so is most of the under hood controls and components (no engine yet!) Dash was in and out about three times, pulled again at the end of the day, but close. Still some more heavy work to do, but getting close, and looking more and more like a car! Sorry for the poor pics, but I think there's a bit grease smudge on my cell phone lens! Jeff painted the rear diff bright orange, I think that's good for at least 2-3 seconds faster per stage kilometer alone!
