      Good call! I actually did get around to changing the mustache bar bushings to polyurethane, along with adding helper springs to the coilovers, but I didn't get a chance to get it on video. The bushings were pretty worn, so it did make a difference.

Exactly what I need for about six months is PRIVATE garage with nice LIFT and man you can getter done. The one I find online rent is little too expense plus it open to public. Nice work/videos enjoy it very much. How many days did actually take for you to finish the entire job?

    Sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars including classics will be banned
    from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the
    Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025
    on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas
    station per city or county. Now they want to slow down all the gas station fuel
    pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in
    the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems,
    turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and
    New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be
    done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of
    crime here, called emission- and smoke crime.
