My Daddywagon

Absolutly love this car! Deffinetly a sleeper. That first video you posted, the area you were in, the whole video i was like damn this looks familiar. Then i realized it was Bartram Ave going onto I95, lol. My grandmom lived in Folcroft, i grew up over there pretty much every weekend.

 

Yup! That was my commute home! Nowadays I work in Hunting Park due to promotion. So my new commute is the Boulevard sometimes. Needless to say I am often tempted to drive aggresssively, and sometimes I oblige. The boulevard has a rep for this.

 

soooooo sick

 

Another member caught this on his dash came lol

 

I was behind you in Philly this morning! Dashcam timestamp is one hour off...

Looks like we all had the same idea!

 

Haha! Just saw this! That is awesome! Lol! I tried to get in to that Passyunk ave. Car show!! I saw your truck driving behind me! Glad for Tacomaworld representin’!!

 

Did you ever get in?!?!

 

No! The guy I talked to at passyunk and broad said he was last in at 8am I got there after 10 for an 11:00 am show. My fault really Cars and Coffee I am 2 hours ahead... I should’ve known better.

 

I got my Tacoma in...

They opened up a few more spaces at the other end of Passyunk!

 

Did I spin the tires in front of you?.. because I was gettin’ on it a bit. I guess I should’ve tried harder to get in.

 

Yesterday my brother brought his nsx and I brought the Daddywagon to Cars for Crayons at the Neshaminy mall. Proceeds go to school supplies.

 

Does the Daddywagon have working A/C? One thing I don't understand is why so many people bypass or otherwise remove the the air-conditioning system in vehicles that actually have it from the factory...

 

There is an a/c compressor in there and I have every intention of installing working a/c, but in my haste to get the car running and driving, I removed the lines and never re-installed. Also I need to splice in the new engine computer to the a/c. There is a provision in the harness for it.

 

Always loved the old nsx.

 

I love that car too. With the aftermarket exhaust, driving it is like playing a video game.

 

Daddywagon has been out of commission for the past couple of weeks. I need hub/bearing assemblies up front and a new bump steer kit. If I can get it done before next sunday then I can make the last Lehigh Valley Cars and Coffee.

 

Well... we made it to the final Lehigh Valley Cars and Coffee of the year. The Daddywagon was well received mainly because of a little sign that I made. The brief description sparked conversation and interest. Ultimately though it really only turned heads when I started it to leave and go home. The echo off the buildings must’ve been loud because I could see people in the lots turning to see me leave... of course I was revving it up between every shift! Haha!

 

How much do I like my car?

 

When I replaced the hub/bearing assembly on the driver’s side for too much play, two of the studs broke when I removed the wheel spacers from the old hub. This was fine because new hub=new studs. Well 2 wheel spacer studs broke on the pass. side. So now I am concerned that 25mm spacers are too wide and combined with the deep backspace steel rim, the loading and heat cycling is causing premature failure.
Six (6) studs have failed in total, 2 on a wheel spacer plus 2 on each hub. It’s a good thing I have a spare that clears cobra brakes.
