wotnartd 08-01-2008, 04:39 PM Why do I like working on them? I just spent five hours working on my FB, so it will be ready for a meet in a week. Today, I'm replacing the water pump, and while I'm at work my dad will be tapping the water pump housing for a mechanical temp gauge. No tap here is big enough, though, so he'll look around for one. We have 1/2 in. NPT, and I need 9/16 NPT.
I leave for work in an hour and am spending more time yacking on this forum, still having to take a shower. I smell like GL 4/5 and antifreeze, my hands are irritated and sore from gasket remover spray, and I've got a wicked sunbrun.
God, it feels good.
1revnrex 08-01-2008, 05:03 PM It gives you a sense of accomplishment. Good stuff.
wotnartd 08-02-2008, 06:35 AM No luck on drill bit and tap. And I'm thinking where I want to tap the wate pump housing I may rub against the alternator. Factoring in another day blows, since I'm going to sleep today away.
I just hope my dad can make a little headway on the cherry shift knob.
the shaolin 08-02-2008, 07:16 AM You bitch so much. Not enough lube, blah blah blah.
By the way, I opened a bottle of my homebrew a WEEK early and it was fantastic, albeit a little flat :)
beefhole 08-02-2008, 09:32 AM I spent 8 hours, with 2 of my friends on a Sunday waxing my car. We didn't even FINISH!

Don't you hate that???
I can spend 5+ hours cleaning my car and not even finish... =(
beefhole 08-02-2008, 10:17 PM My car had a faded/dull finish. We did 2 rounds of compounding, then finally got around to waxing. It was night and day though when we finished. My car was like a mirror. A day well spent. :)

Yeah, time well spent.
wotnartd 08-04-2008, 06:14 PM So, I got the FB put together. Runs good, cools well. Ta da.
czarofzar 08-04-2008, 08:56 PM fuck working on cars. its too hot here
beefhole 08-04-2008, 09:02 PM It's (was) better than it looks here. Before all the work we did, that hood had no reflection on it.

If you look at the rear fender, you can see we didn't finish. Seems to have a weird peeling clear coat. I would need a powered buffing wheel to do that section. All the elbow grease we used did work, but was wayyyy too slow.

Today, it was raining, so I covered the carb intake and put on a raincoat. Got the job done.
Turbo II Rotor 08-04-2008, 10:29 PM I would ignore the lady friend on the left also.

You should rethink your options. Kinda.
1revnrex 08-05-2008, 10:12 PM She needs to lay off the fast food but you should put it in her butt.
Turbo II Rotor 08-05-2008, 10:48 PM I like a girl who can get on top and not cause breathing problems for me.
wotnartd 08-05-2008, 10:56 PM I like a girl I want to get on top of me, this one is just... wrong.

beefhole 08-06-2008, 05:11 AM ^ Oh, I changed the pic. Shows more boobage. ;) Same girl, changed her hair.
Sorry, she's not a 95lb supermodel like your girlfriend(s). ;)
