What, no weekend reports?



Cathy, 

Well the weather wasn't in my favor here in CT this weekend.  Saturday was an okay day with temperatures above 32? and some sun.  I spent more of the day in the garage but not much Scirocco related wrenching going on, although I have so much work to be doing.  So my Scirocco related starts like this, I closed the hood which was opened from Friday night and then pushed it back outside and covered it all back up before we got a inch or so of snow.  

I started working on the secondary project, my 84 rabbit which is soon to be my girlfriends and I autocross car. The car has been outside for 1.5 years now and needed some body work done.  So I spent most of Saturday sanding down some surface rust pulling and hammering out some dents, and stripping the exterior taillight, side light ect.

Sunday on the other hand was down right nasty out.  Temp. range 10?-17? however winds 15-20mph.  But I did manage to get my ass outside for a hour or so. I worked on some more body work.  I stayed out until I couldn't take it anymore.  I got alot down for the first time in a few weekends.  I am happy with the progress but project bunny is going to take some time!
Thanks,
Brian
