Alexis: Dustin, you're ghey, lol. I am better. I have tits, and tits rule all.
mmm.... Another sedan with Type- J.
Love'n it fellas!
damn i missed something, what happened?
A few more pics of the beast from today
And heres the back story to what happened to Satch.
Back in November I had a blow out on a saturday. Well I cant ride on a donut and didn't have a spare so I went to the closest and only place by me open on a saturday......... PepBoys.
So I'm outside watching them lift the car up then I hear a creaking sound....... I'm on the phone with my girlfriend and said to her if they drop my car Im gonna kill them. Now literally no sooner then I finish saying that it happens THE JACKOFF DROPPED MY CAR OFF THE LIFT!!!! So I walk inside to go and speak with the manager by the time I make it in him and the idiot that dropped it are taking a broom handle screw driver and hammer to the side of my car. After they beat on it a few times they both come in and try to act like nothing happened and that I was making things up and it never even came off the ground yet and that the damage was already there when i gave them the car.
So after that thrilling event I made a few phone calls and got the manager and the kid lifting it fired, a set of free tires, and some money for damages. I drove the car around for a week or so then started to notice motor issues and a scraping sound when i turned. I got the car in the air and take off the wheel and notice MY DAMN ECU IS DANGLING AND ALL BASHED UP!!! So I reattach the damn thing and the car lasts for about another 3 days then it just died.
Went through a few months of trying to track down my problem nothing I tried worked so I got PJ over to do some HPTuner work to see how everything was doing. Came to find the ecu was running at a 4:1 afr (if someone can explain that to me please do). So PJ got the beast up and running and then the next issue pops up a trans leak and a burned up cat.
i let the car sit for a few months contemplating selling it then bubba started yelling and screaming to get it back up and after working on his car a bit I got the j-body bug again.
So that brings us to where it is today in pieces and slowly being rebuilt some changes are in the works and a few extras when time/money permit.
Oh and by the way I am taking donations

glad to see you're getting her back up and running jeffie. looks much better with a front bumper on it again
we'll have to get together again when you get a little more done. idk what your plans are, but after sitting for that long i'm sure you'd prefer to drive it around town a little and do some maintanence before thinking about making any trips with it. (yes, i'm inviting you up because i.....well....don't like jersey lol)
ah im glad to see your back in the J scene. And bubba deserves a huge thank you for pushing you back into it! love live the satch
Sykeeok: Come to Jersey well work on your car too
(Even though you dont like Jersey
)
Carbon Cavi: Jeffie has helped me alot of times stay in the j-body scene. Even though he gives me alot of crap about my cav lol
. If it wasnt for him and the Jersey J's I probably wouldve sold my cav by now...
Jeffie: Aww I feel loved
but you bastid... You didnt call me to put the catfish on the satch today........ Granted I was at Summer Slam but still >.<. I couldve made the trip up to help you for a bit and raid that nice junk yard you have there
. Anyway I might have a tranny pan for you soon, if everything goes right with my next purchase
.. And I'll bring a a spare muffler so we can start working on the satches exhaust and get it semi legal again
glad to see shes still around. if youve got the time and money, fix her...dont let her rot!
Sounds like one of my stories lol! My car looks like a complete POS right now......

Bubba-I'll see what I can do, but I can't make any promises. Jeffie's got my number so hit me up sometime. I still have to give him back one of his red mirrors anyway. Actually, if this weekend is good for you guys maybe we can do it then. I should be ready to fill everything I've glassed by then and I can always go for meeting more people off the .org. Besides, it's not that I hate Jersey because of the people, I hate the roads and the smell....and the high cigarette prices suck too. I thought NY was high at $5 and change a pack.
Jeffie-Where are the new updates you promised?!
Sorry John no updates yet I'll have more this weekend or atleast thats the plan.
Jess the lag is from how I converted the video my converter doesnt really like the format my cell phone records in.
Saturday is gonna be junkyard searching and then satch work.

Should put that Bessie wasnt in use when we did your motor mount. Due to that group of hornet's that didnt wanna leave her alone at all lol... It was funny as hell though putting the TTR mount in with a jack and a crow bar ahhahahahah
That instert you gave me for the mount is really good thanks for that again.
