For....? 16" CPR's? I have NOTHING to ride on when my wheels sell, thats why.
Got the z6 TB cleaned, primed, and painted after work. Starter has been cleaned and primed and will be painted tomorrow!

Re: Carolina Cars Thread!
Trav, here is another resource to check out about our transmissions. I'm driving to Greensboro tomorrow to pick up a 90 si tranny for $120. Gonna do the differential test when I get there.
For some reason, this article says to put the tranny into 5th; not 1st...

Re: Carolina Cars Thread!
Axle #1 has new bracketswelded on and gears and locker in, axle #2 almost done welding, gears and locker in. also have to weld the truss on. Can't wait to get them under the jeep, 25mpg and can pull a house is my kind of toy. Also 3 link rear suspension will be on its way here come thursday. So damn excited, i'll be one of the first people to get the kit before it becomes a retail part.
Now I have to sell my swampers so I can run my bfg's abd get some cash to buy 38's or 40's. Also starting my exo-cage in a week or two. This toy is so much more fun than the db was, I miss curves but not that much. Haha

Re: Carolina Cars Thread!
Here are some random shots I have taken with mom's d3100 since cleaning the motor. Just got the block sprayed.
Before (after EXTENSIVE CLEANING!)
Hit with simple green and pressure washer x2 today. Of course primed and painted:
And got bored while waiting on paint to dry so I got the dremel out. Still need to smoot it over 100%:
Put some funky paint on the dizzy cap. Will post in a bit for input!

I will gladly do yours. You buy supplies, I have pressure washer and simple green, you bring beer and we call it even!
Hood and trunk, for you (and anyone else on here), MEH....$500. $275 for trunk, $225 for hood.

Had some new "parts" come in:
Emblems for trunk once back from body shop, clock block as I cannot get a clock to work since swapping the dash in the 4dr.

Re: Carolina Cars Thread!
Ugh, still at work. Went in a hour early and gave to stay 4 late, apparently my seniority doesn't mean **** to my manager. I'm supposed to be able to make the guys under me stay in my place if I dont want to, but since they are all **** ups and constantly break **** and/or don't show up to work i'm forced to do it. I'm really tired of busting my *** for a company just to get ahead of the pack and then get **** on and treated like a damn slave. Only for the retards to be let off easy and make almoat what I do and do 1/10th the work. Fvck corporations, im going to start selling crack and heroin and be my own boss. Haha /rant

Damn, that sucks Jon. At least you know they trust you to get the job done right. Eventually, they will have to start kissing your shoes...
Anyone got a line on a 4.25fd out of an L3 tranny?

Re: Carolina Cars Thread!
I just got the highest classification you can get in a plant for my job and got lied to as far as pay rate. And i'm yet again the first person to ever get it in less than 18 months that's ever worked there. It's just like magna, except I drive farther to get lied to here. Have a interview at a local machine/off road shop tomorrow. I'll take less $ to enjoy what I do and be closer to home.
