Low and Slow
Heard a clunking sound driving around earlier so I jacked her up to check it out. Turns out the rubber ring on my upper control arm shredded and now it's all F'ed up.
I'm getting tired of spending so much money fixing this car.

dont worry i feel your pain..thursday morning i wacked a curb fuckin hard (tried to avoid it but no luck) and fuckin bent my driver side lower control arm..
I managed to drive her back home 2day (hour away) but i had to hold onto the wheel like no tomorrow cuz she would just fly right if i let go...good thing it wasn't wet at all
tomorrow morning im pickin up a used control arm for like 40 bucks and the car should be back up driving straight by noon
..so yeah the curse of this car continues & did i mention i hate winter?

so i just washed the cl, and it's not too bad, most of the rust i saw was basically surface rust, so i rubbed most of it off, but there is still some left, and a couple other bubbles that i can see coming out soon. The passenger side is gonna be so done, there's a huge line of little bubbles starting to come out, probably where he welded in the new piece of metal there or something
the rest of the paint looks so nice tho, love the black sapphire metallic

^^now THAT sucks.
my friend barfed all over his carpet the other day, so we cut up the part of the carpet with puke on it and just threw it out. saved us a shit ton of cleaning.

first glance at the car and the rust was just right there staring me in the face 
damn, so i haven't washed the cl in a little while, since it's been pretty warm and dirty as hell outside. Got home today and i saw the drivers side quarter panel and it's getting rusted again
It only had a little rust on it before the car was repainted in october and they fiberglassed that area, but now it's waay worse, a huge spot is forming at the top of the wheel well that was never there before.

i don't see holes in that car. no holes= rust not that bad
And Dicorp, you car is a 95, and it's in Ontario, so the rust is pretty much expected. Mine's also from ontario and that's why the rust was so bad

Well what i thought was the problem was the lower control arm which it was partially but i tried finishing up everything & the balljoint wont drop into the control arm..so after some investigation i noticed that my subframe is bent where the control arm bolts in causing the gap between the control arm & balljoint..
