Yarn, PVC, and a local = :D

Ok guys, I need a DSM. You want to see what I have been doing with my time? A few weeks ago I learned how to knit. Its kinda relaxing... it keeps my hands busy and mind off of dumbass girls and school. I started a scarf, its wide as hell. Its 8" wide and is about two feet long right now. It takes for ever and a half, I have about 7-9 hours into it now so only about 15-20 until I am done . Anyway, heres a picture.

Also, my friend and I were talking last weekend at a show choir competition (we kicked ass BTW, grand champions bitches!) and we decided we needed to make a potato gun. Well, a trip to fleet, home depot, walmart, and gander mountain later, we have one bad ass potato gun

Its barrel is 2" PVC about 4ft long with a two size PVC combustion chamber. The main part is 4" a little over 2 ft long and since they dont make 4" to 2" couplers we needed to use a 4" to 3" and a 3" to 2". The smallest they would cut of the 3" (to join the two couplers) is 6" long, so we just got a little bigger combustion chamber. Well, all in all its almost 8 ft tall and hopefully capable of wicked long and powerful shots. My friends potato gun has a 14" long and 3" diameter combustion chamber for about 98 cubic inches, mine is about 370 cubic inches! It will get a nice black/green duct tape reinforcing paint job tonight and we are going to go blast the bitch off tomorrow. I hope it works well and no one gets hurt doing it!

Ok, now the "local" part of the title. I saw my friend at McDonalds today while I was working. He was with his friend, a local DSMer. He had a 400whp AWD but he blew it up. He said its ready, but he needs to get his stand alone back (hes running haltech or whatever its called). Anyway, hes got a coupel 1g's, one of which he will sell me. He wants to keep his 91, but he'll sell me the 92 awd shell. I dont know what color it is, but its got decent exterior, a 4 bolt rear, performance suspension (cant remember brands or drop, but its lowered), and everything else it needs to roll (brakes and wheels). It doesnt have an engine, tranny, tcase or driveshaft however. What should I pay for it? I am willing to pay a little extra since I wont have to go anywhere to get it. Also, that guy (Matt) has extra engines and parts as well does Shawn. I'm excited guys, I'm determined to have at least a 12 sec DSM for our meet! I'll get pictures of it as soon as I can.

Build on hold until I get a good paying job, either in school or once I get out. At that time a full tear down and complete rebuild should be in order.

The Purple People Eater will ride again... January 2011 can't come soon enough.
