Estate Cataloging — Winston-Salem

Currently in Winston-Salem working through the estate in person. Sorting, photographing, and cataloging materials from the Cremean and De Lavergne collections. Physical presence makes it possible to assess condition, context, and provenance in ways remote work can't.

Scion xB — Aisin C56/C59 Transmission Rebuild

Manual trans rebuild on a 2008 xB. Third gear engagement failure traced to a worn shift fork and synchro damage. Sourcing internals from a 2001 Celica GT donor — the C56 and C59 share enough to make it viable.

Failure mode confirmed: shift fork + third gear synchro
Celica GT donor located; parts compatibility verified
Full teardown complete; waiting on parts

RX-8 — Post-Wreck Component Assessment

Sadly, The Shell is a write-off. Currently we are going through the car to figure out what's worth pulling — powertrain, suspension, aero, cage hardware. The 13B is the obvious priority but everything gets looked at before anything gets scrapped.

Shell: no-go
Powertrain: condition assessment in progress
Suspension, ancillaries: sorting what's reusable
