Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

do what I do....ignore the dash and just use the HUD for the one instrument that matters

that would be a nice upgrade, but im not cutting my dash myself. thats way above my skill grade. and i really hate wiring stuff up like that.

that would worth 3 hours of driving again if you want another side job.:cool: i know you do....
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

Scott... it's easy enough.. I prefab everything and have a "template" dash piece that says.. "cut here" basically.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

I've been working my guts out today.

yeah..I even know when and how Danielle is going to go after that TB. Tomorrow morning, in the driveway with the TB cleaner and a 10mm socket. (just like the game Clue)

I cleaned out the data center and all of these empty dell boxes from my office today and yesterday, it's been a slow week. Bill I'll message you about that pulley later I have to see if if it's a press on or a modular, I am 90% sure its a press on. You wouldn't happen to have a 3.6 press on would you? I am trying to get this Gen 5 S2 IC kit from this guy online for $300 w/o tubing. If I manage that I will drop to a 3.6 pulley.

Nice. I see you have a 88.

I don't drive those cars much. Just have them stored at a house for now. I need to get some more ambition to work on them some more. Holding onto them because those are getting hard to find in good shape.

I have some envy, the Cutlass was my dream car. I found a red soft top with the 3.4 DOHC and some guy offered more money than me. 81k org miles were on it one owner :th_angry-teeth:

I wanted to add my 72 El Camino to my signature but it wouldn't fit. Whomp
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

First full week without work. Haven't touched the car... been squatting in a friend's apartment for the A/C and Netflix. Worth it.

Both of those are cool cars. I've wanted a Cutty drop top for years. I went down south to get mine. So glad I did. A rust free car is a great platform to start restoring.

I've owned my Cutty now for 4 years.

I can't see why you wouldn't be able to run at least a 3.4.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

I want our old 87 Cutty back. Car was so awesome, I miss it so much.

Surprisingly work went well, and I've decided to pretty much let every thing go. It's not worth fighting a losing battle and pissing them off again. Though I was in the right and it is a huge misunderstanding. I've had plenty of experienced co-workers tell me to let it go.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

hopefully this is the last day of triple digit temps in my area so i can go in my garage.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

I got the car back together and it started, so I was very proud of myself. Boyfriend texted me after he got off work at 7 and I told him how it went and that I was happy....he ignored it...so I said, ok then not proud of me a take it....his response, I guess. Just don't create any vacuum leaks.
Wtf, I just saved myself a bunch of money and learned some things and he could care less. I know just got off a 12 hr shift in a sweat shop, but damn.
Is it not cool or appealing that I can attempt to tear into a motor and do some small things on my own? :th_scratchhead:

Ok, I'm done. Laying back down for a nap.
 


Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

well im proud of you, takes alot to actually get out and do it. But after you do its such a good feeling. good job Danielle! ps: hes not a car guy is he lol
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

Thanks!
Actually, he is a car guy. Pretty smart mechanically. Had a 00 Bonne SSEI that he tore down and rebuilt and has fixed up several other vehicles. But for some reason when it comes to me under the hood trying to fix stuff, he seems to be less than impressed.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

I do know if my ol lady got in the garage i would rub her feet till she said stop. Thats why im proud of you, actually not whining crying or anything, just getting at it. But i can see where a man would be imtimidated by a girl working on a car but now adays its common for the roles to be change.
