I look at the photographs of that "pristine 41,836-mile Westy" in that thread, and they remind me that this has been a long journey to the car it is today, at 93,660 miles. It is a better car in almost every way. Just two days ago, I got the sink to actually work. It was ridiculously easy. A single broken wire near the pump:
Decorated the faucet switch for idiot-proof operation:
The Lionel Kid and I were beside ourselves:
Yes, I was that excited when water gushed out of the faucet, running water!
Then I cleaned every single square inch of that Westy,
I haven't seen this car fully emptied out of Itinerary accoutrement. It looks nice and drives lightly:
removed and washed the curtains,
shampoo'd the upholstery and carpets,
touched up the wood paneling,
painted each door at the seal contact surface,
we're talking an immaculate car:
Now you can see the results of all that color-sanding throughout the summer, the reflectivity of the paint is double what it was when I bought the car:.
