    I used Turtle Ice, she was hella smooth.

    Then, I drove home. Hour and a half drive from my dad's to mom's place.

    The clean was short lived.

    Jacked up car and cleaned off wheels inside an out. My back left tire wasnt latching at all even with parking brake ... After investigation found out my parking brake line for my back left tire is blown. Awesome.

    Cleaned the throttle body, should have done it when I bought the car. It was a little scary.

    Well considering my Grand Prix is still not on the road (need to find a job in this damn town) I've collected a couple parts to install
    And today was the day i got super bored, drove over to where my g-p is sitting and installed them ( I also removed my exhaust tips, spent 30min each on the wire wheel and polished them up quite a bit forgot to get a pic of them)

    4'' Cone Filter from Canadian Tire



    And some new Head and Tail Lights, Will get a pic of the tails, i installed them, came to the conclusion of tinting them, and pulled them back off for tinting

    pulled some parts off the parts car and installed a 99+ overflow on my car. Also used my dhp tuner to make it so my ses light doesn't come on anymore because I don't have a rear o2

    sold my friends old work truck today, spent like 4 hours dinging it out of his garage, and then charging the battery, topping off all fluids and crap as its been sitting for 2 years, and wont ya know, that little old 350 fired right the F up, not a hint of smoke out the tail pipes either, i was shocked to say the least.

    lets hope the guy made it home, he came from PA with a lic plate, slapped it on and left lol he had a 5 hr drive home. and this truck you don't do over 55 on the highway or you'll blow it up lol. and no paper work for it either, brave sole i tell ya.

    and i made 150 for my work selling it and getting out the door, ill take 7 1/2 % commission off 2,000 any day. he wanted to give me 200 but i said no that was to much for not a whole lot of work. but i took the 150 when offered lol


    now im off to e bay t find a new key fob, as mine took a real dump on me and died, yest the battery is new, and tin foil dont work so good either. time to chuck this one....

    guy i sold the truck to just called, i was kinda scared to pick it up lmao.


    guy made it home, not one problem. it took a full tank of gas to get him way into Pa , and he just filled it up again as he got close to home. its a 16 gallon tank lol this is a 8 to 10 mpg truck, at best.
