I'd be in. It would give me a good excuse to wash this dirty ****.

Dpauls car may be back up soon, probably would be already if his new throwout bearing wouldn't have been defective. I know he would be in if cobalts are allowed lol

Yeah problem after problem lol. Swapped motor, during the process the fuel pump killed itself and so did the throwout bearing (probably our fault, i guess)
Pulled tranny, new throwout is defective.. aparently its somewhat common?

This is why i prefer RWD, lol

I don't think we'll do anything to it this weekend, I think he's waiting on parts. Forgot to mention we were going to swap the rotors/pads while it was down, turns out they sent him the wrong pads for the front, and the wrong rotors for the rear? Bad luck with this car I swear.
