Birddog0347 rescues a Fox

[bird_dog0347]

Went and exchanged the wheel this morning, the larger size is perfect but when I got home I realized the screws to attach the new one were missing from the box so I had to make a trip to Elliott's hardware 20 miles away since I knew they would have the right sizes... so 240 miles of driving in 2 days got me this.





And here's my view with the wheel where I like it.

Looks very nice sir

[bird_dog0347]

Thank you, it's coming along...

I would have gone with removable hub, that way you have extra security if you needed it.

From a theft stance or safety?

Theft. You might decide the power tour coming through DFW is your jam, and worry all night at the hotel that your car is one of the ones that gets stolen every year or something. Hard to steal a car that doesn't have a steering wheel.

Pretty hard to steal one that won't start too... they don't run very well without a rotor under the distributor cap.

They couldnt start one of mine (after fucking up the column so they could turn the wheel) so I got woken up by the police asking if i knew my car was around the corner in the middle of the road. I drove it back home after flipping the kill switch on.

They wouldnt have been able to roll it down the street to try to start it if it didnt have a steering wheel...

[bird_dog0347]

Gotcha... Truth be told though, it's 6 screws to remove it, easy enough.

I wired mine up so that if you try to start the car without holding down the passenger side window up button, it honks the horn.

[bird_dog0347]

It's not really too big of a concern for me at the moment as I don't have plans for the car to stay anywhere for that long outside of my garage...

Went ahead and scored the Corbeau seats, I've got the SVE seats available now if anyone is interested let me know otherwise I'll post them up for sale

Still have those seats?

[bird_dog0347]

I do, you should come pick them up!

I put an ad in the classifieds with both of those. Feel free to make me an offer, I could use the garage space.
