To hell with cars.

Well, I am about sick and tired of this motor. Maybe I dont know as much as I think I do, or maybe it was a stroke of bad luck. Maybe, I just rushed it (how can you rush a job in 5 days?) But regardless, I am done with this motor. Whether from lack of time, or pure frustration. It has been yanked out, and I am in search of something to put in my car. But, it is going to have to wait, for at least a month and a half.

Tonight I am flying to Boise, Idaho, then driving to Pendleton, Oregon. Then friday it is on to Portland, Oregon, and from there its off to somewhere in Texas. The reason being, my fire crew has been dispatched to go search for shuttle pieces for the next 30 days at least.

So, here my poor little car sits, without a heart, waiting for an unknown future. I am almost tempted to say fuck it, and get a bseries swap. But in all likelyhood, I may just keep it simple, and go with a z6, or y8. Who knows, I sure as hell dont right now.

But right now, I am kind of sick of my car. The front bushings are done, my new shocks will be in this friday. Exhaust has been ordered, but there is nothing to make it go.

So, all in all, I am selling some off what I have put together for the past few months. I am not going to list what I have right now, because I wont be able to take payment, and ship them out, for quite some time.

ahhh....

I may give you a call.

Depends on how quickly things get rolling. Hell, I may end up sitting there for a few days.

So, you're just gonna scrap the A6 after 5 days? After all the work you've put into it? I know you're frustrated and all, but don't you think that's being a bit hasty? Not all is lost... keep at it for a little while longer, and you will find out what the problem is!
