Well this has turned out to be a great week. First we got 3 free nights in a suite at boomtown. Then my wife turns $10 into $544. We go to johnnys to eat pizza and take $40 in. Food was $31 so she took the 5 and took the 4 and put them in a machine. She hit $112 and I lost my 4 lol. She wanted to go to Kittlers so now I have mls head gaskets, arp head, and rod bolts. Plus mom is getting married tomorrow.
Having a wife isn't bad. Just depends on what kind you have lol. Now she is ready to get home and get get some dirt under her nails.

You must mean a stock stalled auto trans. Big converter in an auto is way harder on rod bolts then a manual.

Silly mustang... The new 5.0 didn't have a chance. Even with my cracked ringland. He didn't know I was boosted until the waste gate blew out his eardrums.

Well, I've tried staying off car forums since I've been gone, but now its just about time to come home (beginning of Jul hopefully). I've had 6 months thinking about what I'm going to do, and as usual, plans have changed.
I'm not going to post an official ad yet since I'm not there to show it, but I figured I'd check with the local thread to see if anyone wants my Camaro roller. It's an 02 Z28 35th anniversary car with good paint, great cond interior, but has a rebuilt title. From what I found before I left, it was an impact on the front left that was pulled out, as you can see in the pics, the hood doesn't line up quite right. Only other problems are the windshield is cracked, and the passenger rear floorboard is dented up a little. I'd like to keep the corvette wheels for the T/A, but for the right price I'd probably part with them. Preliminary thoughts are $1500 range for the car, and $2100ish with the rims. If someone is interested, this gives you about a month to get funds together I figured.
As far as plan changing goes, the 4.6 into my 88 turbo coupe may be changing. If I get rid of the T/A too I'll have a spare 6.0/T56 sitting around with an F-body turbo kit that could probably be made to fit the fox body bird. My dream car was a T/A, then the GTO came out and I wanted one of them. Well, I have no need for both, I only drove the GTO for 4 days before heading to Afghanistan, but I guarantee I'm not selling that for a long time, so that leaves the two F-bodys as probably leaving. Pics of the T/A are in my album if there's interest in it, but I'm not decided on selling it quite yet, still trying to justify keeping it to the other half when I have 9 vehicles.

Anyone going to the track tommorow? Everyone I used to hang with around here military-wise has just PCS'ed or deployed so my bored *** is probably going to the track tommorow night. Might also go to Bodcau to shoot Saturday morning as well.
