if you have the engine out of the car and just sitting now is the PERFECT time to freshen up everything on it prior to re-installation....new waterpump, timing belt, accessory belts, alternator testing, etc. New plugs, new wires, new distributor.....it is SO much easier to do these items now than it is to install everything and realize you've got a problem. Also make sure you hand prime the engine prior to starting it up....dont want a motor thats been itting dry started....bad news bears.

snap sorry, its been quite a while since i was on... car is running now, got new belts an stuff, cant do to many mods yet.... im really sorry for not keeping updates... i just moved into roscoe Ill... hate it here because its all new development and THERE IS NO INTERNET CABLE CONNECTION these bastards!!!!!!! so we had to go with earth link instead of cable... and my mom works online so... i bearly have a chance of getting on...

anyway, im babying my car for a while, and i do plan fixing up her body and making the engine presentable. now im anxious as hell to drive and meet up somewhere, absolutly nothing to de here, and aspecially during a drout! fn broke as it is, but fishing and working on my car passes the time...

kinda miss hangin out in the forums

the good side of not being on so much is I got a little connection that can get me into Iron Working.

what everyone else been up too?

Hey PRO1 how did you do your eyelids? i would like to do that to mine too

well gonna check Sm'o threads

she has looked into it.. but the expense to set it up and all that good stuff wouldn't be cheap

plus we just mooved into a Contrino home ($199,000) and there is a bunch wrong with the plumbing and stuff so..... well, what do you expect for a $200K home
