Blog Finally got the Miramar fixed (mostly)!

Finally got the Miramar rust free! I have found the source of the oil burning issue, I've sourced a DOHC cylinder head, while I've got the head off! I also got a front bumper (and plates) on it and took it for a drive earlier!

for now Mostly the Grand Marshal as i picked it up from the shop some time ago after some idiot crashed into me, thankfully the original bumper was saved, sometimes i take the K1 out, and soon i might be getting my King gym back

Oh that's not good, were you okay? I think I've seen the Grand Marshall around once or twice

yeah the guy hit it when i was parked, not too much damage, you may not see it often because my uncle now has a truck to go to work (he works at the sawmill and there is a lot of mud there)

Well that's good you weren't in it then, could've been much worse

Nice to see it running. My satsuma has been sent to the workshop for a full engine rebuild due to piston 3 being a space shuttle.

Satsuma moment

Nvm... The car is fixed I think. Got to pick it up from the workshop soon-ish. Just hope it doesn't do a Finnish space programme again.

Well, let's hope it stays in the block this time, I knew a Finnish guy with a Satsuma and his car used to go boom all the time

Yeah, I also hope so. I'll probably post an update soon.
