You know what I'd like to see....

I'd like to see a massive Mustang guy party HERE:

http://k1speed.com/

I mean....how appropreate is that?

fabman

D'HO!

You got me on that one....

Jeds Garage.....I thought it was a regular shop.....got me all excited about keeping my hands clean.

Either place would be fine (food and beer goes without saying) I just don't want to be a bother to any one.....

TacoBill

Good news and bad news.

Good - Motor is out, heads pulled.

Bad - Damage to #8 cylinder head caused by fragmented piston. Windage tray also damaged. Block cracked in 2 places.


I'll be stopping by the shop after work today to check it out.

I'd probably agree if the link worked.

fabman

Check it now....

LEO_06GT

Ouch!! Dam they could've atleast waited until after the holiday weekend to break the bad news. That suck's Bill. Good thing once it does get put back together it will be indestructable.

Sal-I've heard of the place but never been. Count me in for that one.

fabman

Yeah, thats what I expected to hear.....I've blown a helluva lotta sh*t up and usually when pistons/rods let go you can just jack up the carburetor and slide a new motor underneigth.....

fabman

I went yesterrday for the first time....the cars are actually pretty dang fast and good handling.....took me back to my stock car days......except that I'm old now and got tired quickly (whats that weezing sound in my helmet?)

Very nice facility too....you must see this.


One bad thing though....the first corner I hit on the way home I wanted to throw my mustang in the trash....I forgot how good GOOD was and how bad average was.....

TacoBill

I was afraid of this happening. I have to see what my options are at this point regarding the heads. Really doesn't matter, I'll be out more $$$$.

I feel sick to my stomach, no joke.

fabman

Oh man....I know I speak for everyone when i say I'm so sorry Bill....
Guess I'll have to pick up some lottery tickets and if i hit the big one I'll buy you a new motor....

fabman

Here we go....

I say we get everyone together and book a party.....it's not that expensive really, and it's a helluva lotta fun....I say we all pitch in and pick up Bills entry fee too....he's sure helped all of us out enough....


Whaddya say?

TacoBill

^ Thanks Sal, but not necessary.. don't really feel like doing anything car/driving stuff. Who know, maybe later.

Ray Man

That looks like a blast Sal.


So sorry Bill. I feel your pain.

fabman

This will take a few weeks at best to organize....it would be cool to have a big turnout.

How about this...

As a special celibration of getting your car back on the road we can book a special "welcome back TacoBill" party....yeah....thats cool.

Ray Man

Actually he didn't even charge me food (ooops... sorry Jed, I should have bought you dinner that night ). He'll just take 800 pictures of you while he guides you through the install.

fabman

Whoah....back seat mechanics I don't need.....

Chronicling the install.....I don't think anyone should have to endure 800 pics of me doing anything......and I know him, he'd take 'em.....just have to keep my ugly a** out of the pictures.....

Nice that we got him all volunteered for this and he doesn't even know it....

HI HONEY, I'M HOME.....BROUGHT MY TOOOOL BOXXX.....

LEO_06GT

So where are we drinking Saturday night?


Count me in.

StangMahn

that's one of the funniest things ive read in a while

that looks like fun

**** bill, seems like nothings going your way on this one; at least the light is at the end of the tunnel

fabman

Rock on...party of two-no waiting....

Lets get this thing going, I think it will be a helluva lotta fun.....now nobody tell Bill.


BILL! Close your eyes whilst we talk about you.....


Okay, I guess I just voluneteered to organize and promote this....I'll need a head count and a good guess when Bills car will be ready....I want to really surprise him...

(You're not peaking....are you Bill?)

So far we got......2

We're off to a ripping good start!

Ray Man

He doesn't mind, I do it to him all the time.

But seriously... he dosen't do any manual labor!

Yooo so funny!!!
