    Well you didn't have all the pictures up when I said my comment, so I figured you rode on the engine itself. lol

    Here she is. Aside from the motor the only work I have done is change the left tail light (it was cracked and full of water). The neighbors keep teasing me about my flying car...it has been like that for weeks. It should be running this week (fingers crossed).

    Put some 2.25" band clamps on the crossover instead of the u clamps unless you want the exhaust to leak.

    Well this was its graveyard. It needs paint by the fuel door and paint in a handful of other spots. I'm focused on getting the motor in and getting some life back into it. BTW it blasted a piston (two pea sized hole on the front edge) #2 and blew oil all over everything. Will post pics soon ish.

    Ok here is the engine damage. I traded for this car, compression checked the #2 cylinder which yielded 0 psi so I bought a new motor a day later. I hope to install it any day now.

    Next time the neighbor has car problems, tease them that they can't fix their own stuff.
    I can't stand people like that.
    Nothing but hate or teasing because their small brains cannot comprehend that you're self reliant and they're not doing anything significant or beneficial.
