My Beta Search will not work untl google does a site index for me, but it looks like they can't because it's not supported by my hosting. :( I will either change hosting or something.

Big thanks to Mercedes-Benz of Australia for recognizing my site as "Link of the Month"

Have you read every word of my Disclaimer? Very important... ahem..

November 1, 2005

Finished the Install Shocks Guide

I've had requests from people who sell on ebay if they have premission to link to my guides, when they are selling parts. Whoohoo!

October 31, 2005 - Tomorrow I'll do the Shocks Guide

Added Steering Filter Replacement Picture

Added Oil Change Guide & Pictures

October 29, 2005: I will be adding a google search page.

I am making a Site Map Index, with all pages listed.

 

October 27, 2005

I forgot my High Miledge award application link was unlinked. Be sure to get this, it's awesome. You only need is 156,000 miles to get your first award badge.

Oct 26 - Over 3,000 unique hits on t

he first day! Fantastic! Thanks everyone. I've implimented many of your suggestions, and planned others! More info in the News page.

October 26, 2005

I have gotten huge positive response, and over 3000 unique hits the first day!! I am very pleased and have gotten lots of help from many people. I am working on many things, and many people's suggestions. I appreciate EVERY comment. Thanks so much!

I only made a new sound kits, but they were ALL sold out within a few hours! I will make some more, if you ASK nicley :)

Other news:

-Made Seat Repair page, as always will add more later.

- Linked a bunch of my unfinished guides to DieselGiant's awesome guides.

-Someone said I should put a watermark copyright on my images, I'm in the process of that now.

-Added some good links to the Links page

-Someone suggested I have Printable Guides. Of course! Most people (including myself) usually work on their car outside, where the car in, (duh) and not where the computer is. So I will try to make some PDF printable guides.

-Due to my large pictures, I may have to upgrade my hosting. I am only allotted 1GB a month. I used 210Mb yesterday. To fund this endeavor, suggested were:

1. GoogleAds are a way I could support the site. I may start to add those. I didn't make this site to make money, but to break even would be great.

2. Paypal "donation" link. I suppose some may feel that saving a few hundred dollars with a good DIY over the local profit center deserves a few bucks. Meh, I'm not making this site to make money. But to break even would be nice.

News: So I've finally decided to launch it, because I've been working on it almost a year in my spare time, and it's long hard work! Maybe if I launch it, and get some angry emails it will motivate me to work on it more ;)


October 25, I'm going to launch this thing today, enough is enough!


October 20, 2005

While driving on a 700 mile trip, I was @ a stop light and a tremendous rattlenoise was coming from my engine. Opened it up and my AC compressor was rattling around and almost off. So I had to cut off the belt, to continue on my way. good thing this broke at the end of warm weather -eh? I will replace this and put up a guide soon.

Finished the Radio Upgrade

May 14, 2005

I finished the Paint/Rust Rainbows Fix. In a few days I'll sand it down, polish it, and take more pictures. I also fixed about 50(!!!) Paint chips around my car. Whew! My Car looks *much* better.

May 10, 2005

This site sure takes up a lot of my time. Due to unseasonable rain here for the past month. I can't exactly get outside to work on my car... I want to do the paint scratches, but I'd like it to be warm and dry. The site is over 105 pages now. Sheesh.

I've also added a counter, so by this date, you will see how many unique hits. Now it's just stuck on zero, because I'm the only one who knows this exists.

May , 2005

I've actually started working on this site again. I need more pictures. There is about 90 pages on this site, that's a lot of projects. The side bars are getting too long, I will make a site index or something.

Feb. 2005

Happy Birthday to my CAR! 22 years old!
