Kinja'd!!!

The Niva is currently in Scranton, PA. Not quite 3000km of 70mph at 4K rpm.

Nearly lost a wheel bearing after setting off, couldn’t find the proper bearings in Fargo, drove all the way to Minneapolis and found them, picked up my co-rallyist, and drove about halfway to Chicago where I was met with a UHaul for a couple-hour ride to a new friend’s shop where we put them in. Bombed all the way from Chicago here today. That was a loooong drive.

Blue halos (we, angel eyes?) plus red paint I think. Maybe some awkward white balancing too. The projector bulbs themselves are a pretty bright white, the above is just the parking lights.

Well we’ll end up heading south, but the first leg apparently goes to Buffalo before swinging around to Pittsburg, so, um... yeah.

Progress is progress I guess! Glad to see the Niva is working OK-ish so far! :P
