Volkswagen

So this past week I pretty much worked on the super beetle all weekend. I finally finished up the engine, put it back in the car, and test drove it. Putting the engine back in was a huge pain but it was well worth it. It seems like the car runs better than it did before so thats a plus but it looks like there is still a small oil leak so this week im gonna take a look at that and see if it's anything major and try to get that fixed up.

Last Night

Last night Mater Dei Drumline had a performance here at the SWIC Basketball game. It was not the best performance but it was decent considering the kids did not warm up before they went on. Had they warmed up I think they would have done much better. Now we are done with rehersal until March 1st because we do not have any performances until March 15th. Then after that we will be holding auditions for the fall season.

Last week

Last week was pretty good I have been working on a project car, a 1974 Volkswagon super beetle, it is coming together nicely I have been rebuilding the engine and it is almost done. I have also been sanding down the trunk and plan on putting some paint on truck bedliner in it to protect it and make it look nicer. Next I plan on finding somewhere to get it prepped and painted so if anybody knows of a good and relatively inexpensive place to get that done let me know. After that I will start on some interior work with a new headliner, door panels, seats, cd player and speakers etc.
The drumline that I help teach has been doing good we have had a couple performances and they have been sounding pretty good, we plan on doing a competition on March 15 at O'fallon High School if there are no conflicts.
