Post a picture you took today

Channeling Clarkson here and thinking it looks like a RX7 shacked up with a Beetle. My neighbor had one and the alarm would go off when it rained
 
@CDsDontBurn you like these extended cab RX’s right? Spotted it leaving Costco with a particularly moody misty evening.

Dude, I love me the RX-8! Definitely one of the better JDM cars out there of its era, despite the rotary's flaws.

Mine lasted 45k miles before I crashed it (lost control, went over the side of a mountain while canyon carving).

I have more pictures at home, but these few are what I have on my Google account the day of recovery

Bummer. Sorry you lost the car. Yeah, got to be careful canyon carving. Do it on the road, not off of it. :zwall:

I was a young dumb kid (24) when I crashed it. Lesson learned. Don't go canyon carving with TSC off, at night, on a road you're not familiar with, with tires that only have ~20% tread life left.

If you look up Glendora Mountain Road (GMR) canyon driving on YouTube, you'll find a few hundred videos on drivers here, and likely a few spills, like mine, lol. I'm sure @Chingon1 is at least familiar with the road being a SoCal native himself as well.
 
@Vicinity thanks for the tip, I’ve just been wrapping in seran wrap and putting em in a glass Tupperware. I like my steak medium well so I usually cook the outside good enough then slice them into smaller pieces to cook the inside better, I’m not much of a rare guy that shits hectic haha

@CDsDontBurn oh yea definitely, in my younger days I had a Honda del sol (that’s a GREAT car btw) and took it up to the Azusa canyons with my buddies and almost ran it into a tree on my side haha also dead of night. Then I drove that same route during the day and scared the shit outa myself, I didn’t realize YOUR LITERALLY ON THE FUCKING SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN 😤😅

These pictures make me not want to see Pearl fixed up😜

It's going to be a bit still. I need to make room in my garage so I have working room on Pearl, and for that to happen, I need to finish up some projects at home.

The front of the house project has been on hold for various reasons, weather being the most recent one (Christmas weekend and New Years weekend).

My wife and I both want floors put in.

Then my wife wants a shed built in the backyard, which will also help with space issues in the garage when that's done.

But once it's all done, I can start working on Pearl again. Hopefully, because it's been a lot of this each year 😔
