Sorry man, I have told Ben for about 6 months I was going to come and get it and just feel bad about it. I'd like to keep my word somewhat in good standing with him. Just stuff always came up preventing me from ever getting it.
This past 8 months has been VERY hard to get by. Just when I thought I was ahead, BAM... Another bunch of bills or unexpected things came up.


Also i would cruise down to mikes and meet you guys, but i just finished tearing my car down since i found metal in the oil AND trans fluid when i drained them today. its down to a short block now. I just think the metallic in the trans fluid is from being a fairly new trans but im going to go through it anyway. no need to kill my new stall.

I was starting my stall and H/C/I swap when i found these and now have to do a full build. But hell it has 180k miles on it!

Anybody got any engine parts for sale? lol
If you need a guy to rebuild the Transmission for you, LMK. I have a great guy here local who builds ALL of my Transmissions. He does a great job and he's cheap. He's been in the Tranny business almost 15 years. He's actually 1 of my close friends, so he'll treat you fair man. Also, If you make a list of what you need, I'll see what I can find for ya!
Sucks the car ended up having more issues than you expected... But it will all work out in the end I'm sure.
LMK If I can be of some help bro.

I work 6 days a week too James, I don't have a choice really, testing has to be done and follow government mandated standards when it comes to emissions.

Mike is a good guy. I'll be picking my car up from him tomorrow. He has been fixing a ton of issues with the car that I have been dealing with since purchase last year. With more fixes to come when the pockets fill back up.

Checkin in from mooresville here on the southwest side, not a lot of f-bodies around this town that I've seen and most are the 6cyls

Not a lot of car guys around me either, there's a meet every friday night in the krogers lot but its all old guys and a growing population of s-10s that are slammed and have gay paint jobs and entirely too loud systems, some with train horns cuz those are just so cool lol

Ionly went over to greenwood twice last summer, saw a few f bods over there and various other nice cars but didn't stay for very long though so I doubt many of you have seen me, god there are a lot of ricers over there, thank you TRU motorsports


Mr Y2K you ever go to Pro Dyno Tech? I believe they are in tipton now

LOL! Yep I turn 25 on July 1st. So technically I'm 24. But not a Newbie to the car scene. I've been racing and building cars since I was 16. Learned pretty much by watching friends and family, and then just tried it out on my own cars and here I am.

As for Chris C. Your an old fart! hahaha
I'm just kidding man!
