Ivan had the car for most of this week, but I went and got it this afternoon. Made good use of it for its last trip in probably a week or two while we pull it apart and pretty it up for the EV Expo in Ottawa at the end of the month.
- took a murdered battery up to the recycling place (10 bucks! Wish I'd held on to all the other ones I turned in earlier :P)
- brought half a dozen bags of yard trimmings to the city compost yard
- picked up the new front wheel bearing
I drove the car on two of the city's busiest roads. When traffic is heavy, the car actually does OK because people can't go fast anyway. One guy went around me "aggressively", but I rolled up beside him 3 times in a row at red lights. What a doofus!
So the next update will be pics of the tidying up of the motor compartment. (Can't say engine compartment any more.)
