Thanks, but no I haven't made a cover panel for the rear deck yet

I just looked through the Hot Rods, and I only have stuff on the 5.7

It isn't going to replace the M5, just my truck. I am sick of being plasticized with the GM crap. Chit breaks on the damn thing every week. They are really cutting corners, but I guess if you are that upside down with your employee pay you have to be. With health insurance and supporting pensions GM spends more than $25 more per hour on their employees than Honda or any of the other imports being made here in the US. They have cut quality so damn far to stay competitive it is fucking retarded. That's why you stick to the good stuff, pre-'72 Back then they had 60% of the market and could easily afford to pay their employees, but then the decided to be the cheapest on the block and slowly but surely lost market share and are now stuck making crap. Technically, Chevrolet is supposed to be a cheap car line. The other GM brands go up from there though. One of the problems is that all the brands are starting to equal out instead of being steps like the old days.

was one of the magazines that I sent you the Hot Rod with tons of info on new engine swaps (GM, Ford, and Mopar)? also, I read another article on how to get 426ci out of one of them, it's a ridiculous amount of work though and there's still that whole not being able to tune the stock computer issue

my EEE test this morning either went really well or really badly I was the first to finish even after looking things over for 5 minutes everything seemed straight forward and easy to me, but I fear I missed something major

It's important to stand for what you believe in, even if you're standing alone

wait, you bribe your customs officer with cartoons? well, i have to get around the fees... I'm just saying it's a tad peculiar that you can bribe government officials with something like cartoons. Perhaps a trip to the Eastern block would enlighten you a bit. I got "caught" doing a bunch of things that were pretty easy to get out of. I guess when something is contraband there, but we can get it so easily, it can be used for a bribe, even if it is something as silly as cartoons

The best line on the page: "Despite having only one light (of any kind) and 5-inch wheels, the car was nevertheless deemed street legal." My cousin actually has a BMW Isetta and drives it around in Fargo, ND. This picture cracks me up too. It is really funny to travel in Germany and see little 3 series BM'ers from the 80's pulling big ass campers, but that there takes the cake. Back in the day, it was pretty common to see first gen Camaros pulling campers and boats Nothing like an Isetta pulling something though

the fact that the roads they built are still smooth enough to be used by cars today is pretty damn impressive too Hell there is so much stuff that is impressive about the Romans. Worth visiting Italy just for that purpose. I know my jaw dropped regularly last year when we were there. Italy is one place I'd like to visit at some point.

Yep, the sealed boxes are bolted to the rear deck with the subs peaking through And I've been using my '67 Camaro as a daily driver, but it has a $300 paint job on it so I don't really care about rock chips and things like that.

can't just extend the wire?
