Things to address after a rough month of moving etc...
clean the FK out the car inside and out...
need a ding on the a pillar and front bumper scratches addressed...
Want to get another alignment and add a degree of negative camber to the rear so the rear sits evenly with front...
Contacted previous owner of wheels and got the powder code for the wheels and will address having that one wheel refinished after me curbing the OTHER half of the wheel that wasn't curbed before.
curbed wheel is the least of it, my friend...fence into my front bumper scratched it up...and curtain rods fell against the a pillar and dinged up real good, like...
Well, it is a Cadillac after all. Putting curb feelers on it appeals to over half of the demographics.
this is the truth... every time i drive to my parents neighborhood, i always have old men asking me about the car... happened in McD, Dunkin Donuts... but it's only in my parents neighborhood... no where else...
Are they like...hey whippersnapper...you got an exhaust leak or something, your cadillac sounds like a pos vette?!?!
Nah, I bet they know. And some of them could probably tell you stories about when they were in primary school and would head over to Shelbyville at night and steal motors out of the deuce coups sitting on the Mackelroy Autos lot to put in their Monkey Buckets. Then the next day they'd spin a yarn to their parents about why their car sounds so different.
i don't think they know.. they just think its cool seeing a Caddy wagon... then i fire up the engine and they are confused...
the one guy at McD couldn't believe i put my family in it and asked how many tickets i have... that thing is a racecar... his buddy has a coupe version...

Got my quote and scheduled my appointment to drop off the wagon to get the body work done.
Going to have it re-aligned and a little added camber put into the rear so it matches the front and drops down a smidge. When the wagon is loaded up with stuff, the stance is perfect so I'm looking to duplicate that with another degree of camber.
Then, lastly...rear wheel will get new powder...already sourced the powder based on the previous owner being nice enough to call his powder guy to get me the code.
maybe...
I'm actually contemplating selling them as is and getting the oem wheel welded up and throw a pair of PSS on the back again...
but...I like how the niche look.

It's all the trees around our office that's keeping my truck with a permanent yellow tint.
