And i would like to keep the car garaged ( dont know where, maybe home )the whole time. You and Big jerm can take it out every once in a while. Let me know. It would probably be a July time frame.
Lets see 4th of July, my b-day is the 25th. It will be somewhere around there.
thanks

Hey Angus do you have those pics from our road trip? And the video? and the pics when i first bought it? just wondering
Sounds good to me. I will be moving ALOT of stuff out of my gargage in a couple of weeks.
Maybe, we can try and put it in my garage.

You need to see my garage with that damn Yamaha banshee in the garage! No room! I might be able to fly to NC and we can drive the car back. It would be best if Jeremy car put both hawks in the garage. I still have the video of our road trip but I think that is it. Yours and Brad's road trip is on the same tape and I am going to get it to a DVD for both of you guys. You need to call me so we can discuss a road trip back.

I may have extra garage space in about 2 weeks if all goes well.

We might have to persuade Tracey on that deal. Just make sure Glenn has space for the 4 wheeler Tracey. Oh yeah and Glenn and I want to trade it in to get him a bigger one. He needs the 400EX Honda

You just want him to crash that much faster and harder???? BTW- he's NOT allowed on your 4 wheeler without full body armour.

Brad, I think that your car loved Vince and now she's just being a bitch. Take care of her and make her feel important and she'll come around.

Wrong. Tires on the front were brand new 2 months before I sold it. I still have the receipts. Tires on the rear had less than 1000 miles on them. I was running Nitto 555R-II's, remember?

Quit with all the negative rambling! Enough already! What do you expect when buying a used performance car? Flawless and perfect? **** happens! I'm dealing with the same crap on the Vette that I bought used with 19K miles.

I understand haveing problems, and not trying to be negative, and not rambling or not inteneded that way.

I just know he has had bad luck with the car, unfortunatly

So the tires were new FALKEN tires, was just curious, cause angus said those were rotting on the car, well I have pretty good luck with the tires on previouse cars and have them on the vette.

Brad and I look at it this way. He wanted new tires and bigger ones on the rear so now he has new tires and a bigger size on the rear. He wanted the front bumber painted due to rock chips he got from San Antonio so someone backed into the bumper which is now getting fixed and repainted. It happens sometimes...

Sorry about all the trouble on your trip. But the motor rocked enough to get a ticket.

Damn red cars. They are like donuts to cops.
