At least that's how it works in f-body land

HAHAHA! So true. Need to add a "throws wrench" in there as well

Its common practice around here that if shits not going your way, then the steering wheel gets punched. That's just how I roll.

Lol @ Ned.

I was having problems with oil leaks after BSE on my red car and I got pissed and punched the steering wheel.....
And the horn button got hung .... Had to unplug the horn.

Damn it, it had crossed my mind. But in all technicality, due to the initial 5 brews while the battery was charging, ambition to use tools would be severly impaired.

Lol at the horn sticking. That would just fuel the rage.

Hell, after my AWD got tampered with, I sold everything... Except a turbo, and FMIC... sigh... I miss those days, hoping to get my shit back in order and buy another... Being a single dad doesn't help at all with having a "toy"... My truck needs so much repair right now I don't know what to do...

Not gonna lie, you totally called that one... I haven't made any progress on it lately... So many bugs in the thing and it's such a headache... I will TRY to work on it some more here soon. It's close... It just won't idle on it's own.

bugs? What about the mice that have probably made a nice home out of it?


Won't idle? It's sat idle for so long Jimmy Hoffa is the hobo living in the trunk.

Surprisingly, no mice... yet...

I think we should lock this thread until something changes. Get it running or BAN!!

Meh... Cut me some slack. I'm dumb.
