Thanks!
Tomorrow I'm going to stick the headliner back up, attempt to polish the headlights, and try to find some local plasti dip for the kidneys. I hate chrome...
Also, going to attempt to drill my ignition tumbler to prevent it from wrecking itself. My key was spinning freely today and nearly left me stranded... No me gusta.

Awwwwww yeah! Welcome back to the show big fella!

Fuh yeah! Congrats on the pickup and quick turn-around. Bank of GF to the rescue, though she'll make you pay for it later...
-
Hell yeah!! Looking good!

Thanks guys!
I'll definitely be coming to meets again, assuming my stupid schedule allows. The company I work for hires a lot of military folks, so the next 2 months at least 14 employees will be leaving for extended periods meaning I'll be hopefully getting 45-55 hours a week.
*edit, answered my own question

Now a question, at hwy speeds if I hit a large bump the car feels as though it's moving side to side, like it's "floating." I see that the front struts are beginning to lose fluid, but I couldn't really see/feel any other issues underneath the car. Granted it was 2am when I looked, but where should I begin inspecting? I'll likely just go ahead and change the struts (springs too hopefully), tie rods, and sway bar end links just for peace of mind.
Recommended replacement on Struts/Shocks is 50k miles. From what you are describing from a ride control standpoint the struts/shocks are done for. On most of the German vehicles you won't hear the struts/shocks go bad but you will feel the handling decrease, such as what you are describing. I would also jack up the front end and shake down the front end to see if you have any balljoint play which was pretty common on these. The bushings are inspected visually and just look for cracking or separation.
