    • It’s a Great Day! I’ve been given the all clear!

      I’m fixed! Well, mostly. Met with my neurosurgeon this morning to get the results of my MRI. No sign of the AVM. There is a small aneurysm but he said it should disappear on it’s own. The surgery to fix it right now would be riskier than leaving it for now. They’re gonna check on it in a year.

      I don’t know how to express the magnitude of the wave of relief I felt. I didn’t really know how it would affect me but it was a bit overwhelming to hug my family and know I was going to be ok.

      I immediately went home and hopped in my car, which has been patiently waiting for months. Hello friend....

      I then disappeared for 2hrs, wandering aimlessly around the 2 lane roads on the outskirts of town. Not too fast because I’m still breaking in the tires I bought before I had to stop driving months ago. I clicked off 90 miles. It felt great to be back behind the wheel. It was even pretty out if you ignored the sweltering heat.

      The day isn’t over yet, but I think some old Ice Cube might be on the playlist this evening. Today was, indeed, a good day.....

    • People throw away the craziest stuff

      I own a small junk removal and hauling company where we primarily just haul broken and unwanted crap away for people who can’t or don’t want to deal with it. 95% of what we pick up is garbage. What little good stuff we do get is usually limited to a piece of furniture that hasn’t been destroyed or small electronics. Occasionally there is something more interesting, but today was different. Wealthy people throw away outrageous stuff every once in a while and this one ranks high on the WTF list.

      A guy cleaning out his garage got rid of a set of Cayenne 21” wheels and a set of Advan RZ’s for his NSX. That’s right. Paid me to haul them away.

      Now just that pesky problem of obtaining the rest of an NSX. I should also mention that when I pulled up he was in the middle of putting headers on his Cayman.

    • Gotta love it when car people help each other out.

      I made a post last week about getting my hands on a vintage MOMO steering wheel. It came without a horn button so I was gonna have to find one I liked for a reasonable price. I also made an Instagram post saying the same thing. Well, a fellow Spridget fan reached out and said he had an MG horn button laying around. He drives a ‘59 Sprite so it’s of no use to him. $20 bucks later and he sent it my way.

      What a cool thing to do for a fellow car fan! He was excited to see that it was going end up on the Fidget, plus all the similar ones I’ve seen are more than double before shipping. I might have to send him an OPPO invite…..Erik in Austin, you’re a good dude.

    • One year ago today.

      Right about this time of day, 365 days ago today, I was waking up from someone cutting a hole in my head. If you’d like to hear about that experience, have a look here: How to Get a Hole in Your Head.

      One year later, I don’t think about it much anymore. I don’t have to take any meds. You can’t see my scar so I forget it’s there. I’m reminded when I have moments that make me thankful to still be here and when I hit one of the now permanent tender spots on my head, but mostly my life has returned back to pre-seizure normal. Today though, it’s at the forefront of my thoughts. I’m so exceptionally lucky and thankful that my particular situation was simple and easy as far as brain surgery goes. I’m thankful to still drive, work on cars, hug my family and friends, and even write about nonsense on the internet. The thankful list is long today.

      The weather is absolute crap here today, but it’s a happy day for sure.

      Thanks for reading.

    • Simplify, then add lightness, or How to get a hole in your head in 3 easy steps. (Warning: couple photos of some post surgery staples included)

      .....I’m sorry, this is very long winded but it just kept pouring out as I typed. I think I should have written this all down sooner to help deal with some of this. It felt therapeutic. Thank you for listening. The pics are at the end if you don’t want to see them.

      I remember at the beginning of the year, everyone said 2021 was supposed to be the year that made 2020 feel like a bad dream. It certainly didn’t turn out that way for me. This is the tale that led me to begin posting here on OPPO after years of lurking around for a decade.

      Step 1. Have a seizure.

      Almost 42 years of near perfect health came to a sudden and discouraging end on March 6th, 2021. Seriously, almost nothing ever wrong. I broke my first bone, the tip of my finger, last year. Sure I’ve had bumps, bruises, stitches, and I even knocked my front tooth in. The difference is that almost all of those were self inflicted damage. This was different. I had no control over what was about to happen to me.

      At one of my closest friends 40th birthday weekend celebrations, at a lake 1.5hrs from home, I had a full blown seizure right in the middle of the party. Thankfully I was sitting down at the time and was surrounded by the kind of people you want to have there in your time of need. People who care about you. One was even a physician’s assistant, who really took charge of the situation while the ambulance came.

      The seizure wiped out all of my memory from the previous week to that point, so I got find out what happened second hand. From what I’ve heard I was acting a bit more confused and strange as the day went on right up until I seized that night. My girlfriend had tried to get me to go to a doctor but I was being stubborn(typical) because we were at the lake for the weekend to celebrate my friend. So I agreed to sit on the couch and drink some water. She went outside to get some air and that’s when I started seizing.

      My first memory was being on the gurney about to be loaded up in the ambulance. I had been out for about 20-30 minutes at that point. Being in the middle of nowhere can really affect ambulance response time. I had just snapped back into reality and locked eyes with my crying lady. Obviously confused, I asked her what was going on and I will always remember her saying “You had a seizure”. I can assure you that sentence didn’t compute the first time I heard it, but there I was, about to take a ride to a small town hospital to get checked out. I don’t know how to describe it other than scared shitless.

      After my brother and mother came to meet us, I spent the night curled up in a hospital bed while they ran some tests. The CT scan was clear, but the small hospital was limited in what they could test for, so I was released the next morning. I soon discovered that I couldn’t walk. My muscles were absolutely destroyed from the intense clenching of the seizure. I had to take time off of work to physically recover and to try and figure out what was wrong with me. It would end up taking weeks to get into a neurologist, so my doctor had more blood tests run during that time than I even knew was possible. They took 16 vials from me in one sitting. That was the first of 4 rounds of tests. None of it would provide any indication of a problem. Discouraging.

      Step 2. Get a MRI

      I finally was able to meet with the neurologist and described what had happened to me. His first words were “First thing is, you can’t drive anymore for at least 6 months”. I don’t remember what he said after that because I had just been destroyed inside. He had just taken away my favorite thing. My wheel time. My me time. My therapy time. My rock out as loud as I want time. My coping with stress time. My independence. My new car sitting in the garage now just waiting on me. Whenever I needed a break in the past, I could always take some time on a weekend morning and just get behind the wheel to wander off and reset. I’ve been doing it since I got my license. Now I couldn’t use that to deal with what is easily the most stressful thing I’ve ever gone through. As I refocused on his words I heard that I was being scheduled for a MRI and put on some anti seizure meds that might cause depression. They do just suck the life out of me by the way. Feeling stressed.

      Fast forward a couple of weeks to the day before my 42nd birthday. I had had my MRI a couple days before. My neurologist’s assistant called to ask if would come in to speak with him about the results. I informed her that I couldn’t that morning as I had gone back to work at this point. She said she would have him call me later that afternoon. For some reason I found that reassuring. Maybe it was no big deal and he’d tell me I was fine. Clearly it was not to be. I was diagnosed with an Arterial Venus Malformation in my brain. It is essentially a tangle of blood vessels that can allow for increased blood pressure in the brain and strokes. I had been born this way and the only way to fix it was to have brain surgery performed. Death, although a very slim chance, was on the playing field now. Fuck. Happy fucking birthday to me. Fully fucking terrified now...

      Step 3. Get a Craniotomy

      There are words that exist that you don’t ever want to hear in reference to yourself. Craniotomy is one of them. That word almost made me vomit the first time I heard it in pre-surgery. May 24th they put me under and removed a portion of my skull. That hole allowed them to go into my brain and cauterize and remove my small AVM. They covered it with titanium and 22 staples. It took less than 2 hours to complete beginning to end. That included 2 MRIs for before and after checks. What followed was what I describe as a 6 day migraine. Nausea, light and sound sensitivity were all at level 10. I spent 3 days in the ICU while I recovered enough(i.e. could keep food down) to go home 4 days after surgery.

      After a couple of days at home I finally started to feel a bit like a human again. I was still being knocked down everyday by the medication but at least I had stopped puking. Looking in the mirror was tough because of the swelling on my head. 2 weeks of gingerly moving about my house and I got my staples out, which was an excruciating experience in itself. Since then I’ve had to figure out how to operate in my new existence. It’s been a humbling and frustrating experience. The first month I wasn’t allowed to be alone. It took 6 weeks for the random drooling from the left side of my mouth to stop. At 42 I have get rides from my mom to work every morning. I go to work and come home. I can’t go grocery shopping. I can’t run errands. I couldn’t run out to buy my girlfriend a birthday present last month. I do get to work on The Fidget some, but the progress has slowed dramatically The last 6 months have been the hardest that I have ever had to deal with, but I’ve learned that I can deal with it. I do feel lucky though. My family and friends have been more supportive than I could ever imagine and I have a new appreciation for slowing down and relishing in the little things that make life good. Also I got my full smile back from the dropping left side of after the surgery. Along the way I gained the courage to start sharing with this group and it’s been helpful to talk with like minded people. Thank you.

      Monday I had another MRI as a 3 month follow up to my surgery. They are checking to make sure that there are no bleeds or any other surprises. Tomorrow morning I meet with my surgeon to get the results. If I get cleared I get to go back to my happy place behind the wheel and resume a normal life. I’ll be cleared to go work full time and to get out to work in the garage without worrying about my head. The anticipation is like a knot in my stomach right now, but all I can do is cross my fingers.

      Oh, the Colin Chapman title refers to the surgeon simplifying my brain and the titanium adding lightness. It’s a reach, I know.

    • Managed to survive another one

      My 43rd to be exact. The last year ranks pretty low on the all time list when it came to years of awesomeness. Brain surgery and several months of recovery will do that. Despite all the crap I’m really happy to be 43 because I’m still here.

      Stay awesome OPPO.

    • Random Photos From the Week of No Power. Plus an OPPO Celebrity

      We spent last week with no power due to a windstorm wreaking havoc so there was some things around to see, but let’s actually start before the windstorm when I saw @davesaddiction and @AkioOhtori at our local cars and coffee. It was a pretty sparse showing but I did get to see the Piazza! It was so wonderfully 80’s

    • The Never Ending Shed Build is Finally Done…No Labor Today

      02D797D6-9986-45F7-A683-334931D2C3B5.jpeg
      This project started at the end of February. It was a simple plan to turn a shed into a little studio space for the lady. As with all things like this it wasn’t so simple. Supply problems, storms, and stupefying heat, among other things, held us up a couple of months. Just barely beat the absolute deadline of the start of football season. I finished up the floors this week and started to move her stuff in this weekend. Really going to enjoy a deserved labor free Labor Day. Hope you get to too

    • The Fidget: combining a 1974 MG Midget with a 1975 Fiat 124 Spider Pt. 1

      After signing up and introducing myself, @RallyDarkstrike suggested I make a post about my project car. I should mention that I am organizing a coherent storyline for you guys, but I have just been tackling random stuff along the way. Some photos may show things done that haven’t been mentioned or things not done that I have already done. I’m sparing you my chaotic thought processes. So here goes a very long post.

      I’ve modified and worked on all of my daily drivers over the years, but I haven’t had a proper project car in almost 20 years. I’ve done the muscle car route before so I didn’t want to do that again. I really like small and lightweight cars these days so that’s what direction I went. I wasn’t set on anything. Mostly I wanted a car that would require some work because I wanted to learn to weld and fabricate in my home garage. So a couple of years ago I bought a welder and found this 1974 MG Midget with a seized motor for $1000. These weigh about 1500lbs and had about 55hp.
      4FB940C7-3088-44D7-95E7-29AFD69D0B95.jpeg
      I dragged it home and set to work diagnosing what was wrong. A little bit of work revealed that the number 2 piston was very firmly rusted to the cylinder wall. It looked like it had been filled with water at some point. No amount of soaking with concoctions or beating with hammers would free it. 92341C78-C64A-43B5-905D-E0FA4CB6A245.jpeg
      I weighed my options of spending multiple thousands on the little 1275 pushrod engine for a rebuild and speed parts to end up with about 85hp or just swapping something in. 100hp seemed like It would be more fun so I chose the later and began working on some of the rust repair while I figured out my plan.

      The drivers lower A-post where the bottom door hinge attached had decide it no longer wanted to be metal so it had to be replaced. This was also when I discovered that there were many layers of paint on this car.

      A little floorpan and outer sill repair. There is still some rust repair in the lower rear quarters but that isn’t anything critical to the safe function of the car so it can wait till if and when I decide to paint this thing.

      The search for a suitable motor was on and I originally wanted to try and find a modern swap but I just couldn’t escape my desire for a twin carb 4 cylinder. Also, the new stuff can be a real challenge to fit under the hood because of the height. I found some photos that showed the Fiat twin cam from the 124 swap had been done a few times but there was very little about actually doing it. I decided that I was up for a challenge and began searching for a donor motor.

      Unsurprisingly finding a 40 something year old engine was a challenge, but I eventually found a 1975 Fiat spider out in the country. It looked rough in the photos but the price was right, so I went and checked it out. It was a rusty pile with no top and full of leaves, but the engine had been rebuilt at some point and it actually spun over easily with the plugs out. Another Uhaul trailer and $700 and it came home with me.

      95hp of fury at one point

      I threw a new fuel pump on it, swapped the timing belt, cap, rotor, plugs, filters and fluids. After priming the oil and fuel systems it fired right up after sitting for years!

      That’s it for part 1. Next time we get into the meat of the project when I yank the engines and cut large portions of metal out of the middle of the car

    • The Fidget: Combining a 1974 MG Midget with a 1975 Fiat 124 Spider Pt. 12

      Welcome back to another edition of my several year endeavor to swap an engine into a tiny car. Family commitments really dominate my time during the holidays so it’s taken some effort to get anything accomplished the last month. On with the progress!

      The last update ended with the drivetrain being mounted and some other bits being bolted on. This time I started work on the wiring, which was in worse shape than I had thought. I spent several weeks just planning and ordering parts and supplies. Parts cannon rapid fire engage!

      The MG harness is divided into 3 parts. The dashboard, the rear body, and the main harness that runs the front half of the car including the engine. As a 1974, my car has the seatbelt interlock system, which is complicated and problematic. I’m removing that entire system to vastly simplify the car. It will remove 2 seat belt sensors, 2 seat sensors, buzzers, a control box with relay, and all of the wiring. I also have to rewire quite a bit of the front because of some position differences on the engine, as well as adding relays for the headlights and electric fans.

      Not having any experience doing a wiring job this big I decided to start with easiest harness first. In this case the one with fewest changes, the rear harness. I pulled it out of the car only to find a spot the had snagged previously during one of the cars resprays. Several wires were scuffed, so after some quick repairs and then removing the passenger seat sensor wiring it was time for a rewrap. I used Tessa tape and some fancy split loom to end up with this.

      Next I stepped up the difficulty by moving on to the dashboard. As you saw I ordered new electronic gauges to replace the original mechanical ones. This would require integrating those into the original harness as well as a couple other changes that would be necessary. But one thing first……

      The big crack in the middle of the dash. You can’t put fancy new gauges in a cracked dash. No before pics, but it’s just a plastic cover that silicones to the top section. It was about 1/4 of the price of a new dash so I’ll see how it goes.
      EE10695A-CFEA-433A-8F7B-B2D390B548A3.jpeg
      Afterwards I mounted the gauges, all new stalks and rocker switches to replace all of the broken ones. Which was every single one.
      029D0419-F147-4D2A-B913-7AE6AF0A855D.jpeg
      The MG originally had a shared oil pressure/coolant temp gauge next to a fuel gauge. The new individual gauges mean I’m moving the gas gauge to the console and extending the wiring.
      C8C8133D-E18A-4A31-A143-90B79E0D43D1.jpeg

      Now back to the wiring. I started unwrapping the harness only to find a section that had melted and then been very poorly “repaired”. Several wires were just taped together.

      Firing the parts cannon again! Shout out to Britishwiring.com for having all the colors with appropriate stripes available in shorter lengths. They also have the molded plugs which are known to disintegrate.
      6009A770-18CF-4FF8-898C-37B905AC1602.jpeg

      With the melted wiring repaired, it was on to integrate the new gauge wiring into the harness. They actually make it pretty easy by giving you daisy chain harnesses for the gauges. Only one connection per wire and all the gauges just plug into the same harness. The only complication was that the gauges have a separate dimmer system that can’t be merged with the factory dimmer so one will just get hidden under the dash.

      All heatshrinked, Tessa taped and just about ready to go back in the car. It took lots of planning and several afternoons to get it all done but I think it came out pretty good.

      That’s about as far as I’ve gotten. I’m in the final planning stages for the front harness right now so I’ve gotten a few more things mounted, like the radiator and crankcase breather, to lay everything out. I’m starting with a new harness because the original had a few melted plugs and some more previous “repairs” that I didn’t want to keep chasing. Yes the blue is the factory harness color for some reason. 4BCACFA9-75A5-4199-8BFF-9AF087D0E852.jpeg

      Next up is many more hours staring at the front wire harnesses and then maybe I can move onto some thing else. Maybe seat mounts?

      Thanks for reading!

      @farscythe it sounded like a 2 stop was expected. And they just said he didn’t have 2 sets of hard so I don’t think he had a choice.

    • A Little Bit of Saturday Morning Maintenance

      Had just a few small maintenance items to attend to on the lady’s RAV4. Just needed both air filters changed and a broken piece of window trim replaced. Perfect small jobs after staying up way too late to watch F1 qualifying.

      Both filters needed it for sure. Actual pieces of debris in the filters and signs of water/sand in the air box.

      The door trim was super easy to change with only one clip to fight it just sort of peeled off and the new one snapped right on. No more flappy window sweep. Although after putting some dressing on the rear door trim to spruce it up it exposed the previously hidden cracks. Guess it’s a new one of those now. Maybe then I’ll tend to the dog claw marks on the door from the nut job jumping out of the moving car a few months ago.

      I even took a few minutes to clean up under the hood to at least get rid of the coat of brown over everything.

    • RE: What do you do if you have no room for a subwoofer but want more bass? This.

      Very nice. My GTI has the factory box inside the spare tire. Maybe 6” so not very big but it definitely helps fill out the low end.
