Well I'm just about done spending money on this thing. I swapped the heater core a couple of weeks ago and in the process noticed that my radiator was in horrible shape, as was my fan clutch, so I got a new radiator for like $20 more than rebuilding the old one would have been. Ooh, and it's got an extra bunch of tubes.
Then I finally caved in and got a new carb because the old one wasn't running right (7mpg in mixed driving??). While I was at it I got a new camshaft and intake manifold (might as well make more power while I'm taking things apart) because the stock manifold was pouring oil down the back of the engine. Then I got new valve covers because the old ones were bent and leaky. And a new water pump because it was a good time to do so. And what the heck, might as well get a ECM and distributor with a performance advance while I'm at it. And a high voltage coil too. And some headers for fun. And what old truck doesn't look better with a 5" suspension lift and 35x12.50 tires on 16.5x9.75 wagon wheels? This week I'm getting the parts to finally hook up my e-brake so I can quit carrying the block of wood around.

So here he is. I think I'll call him Tiny. (tye-knee, not tee-knee)

 

ahem

 

From your post, I'd say you aren't joking Andy. Take a look at the following posts... none of them are any more Subaru related than mine, yet you didn't act all pissy in those. I gather it's safe to assume then that it's personal, but I don't know why. Care to fill me in?

oh yeah.

And perhaps you could explain how this one was Subaru related when you posted it?

What's the point of regional forums? I kinda thought it was to converse and share stuff with people you know. People you consider friends. Nobody gave you and Kim any crap about posting pictures of your baby. Perhaps it's because we were happy for your new addition, even if it wasn't a Subaru.

 

SOMEBODY can't take a joke...

 

OMG! ROTFL!

 

lor~

 

If it was a joke it certainly didn't come across as one, and you're not coming across as very apologetic about it either. Was I supposed to take as a 'ha ha' sort of smiley, without a hint of , or , or even ? I took it at face value like most anybody else would have.

 

Hi Tiny. Meet Peewee. Peewee's coat isn't quite as nice as yours, but that's because Peewee likes to get dirty.

Oh, and Peewee has a 350 LT1.

 

Maybe Tiny and Peewee can get together sometime and get dirty.
