Man. I've only had a Honda Civic, F-150, and a GP. WTF am I doing with my life? lol. Lots of fun and memories on that first page, awesome. When I win the lottery I'm gonna pay you to do the body work on the GP, lol. I'm sub'd.

Hahahaha junk. I makea the junk story, for you round eyes. Scotty I thought that was a thai stick for a sec.

Boobs, children. Thats what. Nobler than my pursuit! I just never wanted to come off the old cars. They're better bodies I guess. Hang loose, no hurry to age. I'm just farther down the road.

I'm also out here attempting sloppily to flush power steering on GTP. Not quite like Blue does it but I'll git r did. Hate whiny wheel. Checked for loose bearings yesterday in anticipation of alignment and tires tomorrow. Right front strut was slotted last alignment but I've had the frame out since then so who knows.

Getting General AltiMax HPs, 98V stock size tomorrow for it. I bet I'll want to get a Dorman sway bar on the rear soon, already have front and these tires should corner nicely so I'll want to use the sways once in awhile. The new coils and ICM cleaning yesterday did some good but the Delco wires on it seem fresh enough that I didn't replace yet. The plan is to do all this up, paint a new front bumper cover and the rails off the 40th, stick the airbags and SIR stuff from the GT in it and get the hell back to full coverage on insurance. I needs dat.

i guess you dont know sue lol shes from fast and loud. she owns the upholstery shop they use. they always being her junk to rebuild. she finds mice all the time, stuff smells bad too when dropped off. lol

Ok woops. I haven't had a working TV in a couple years... who needs it these days? Currently on Lone Ranger box set and utube Highway Patrol bender. Reckon I prefer my entertainment aged a half century or so. B/W TV comforts me. Yeah I divorced reality long ago.

Uh-oh, I hear you guys shifting in your chairs.... going back to Pontiac garage to re-dirty m'sef.

Speaking of mice, my GTP's steering is now about as quiet as one. Silence is golden but this fluid... somebody must have added ATF or something. New fluid is clear as water and I ran at least 3 quarts into the drain pan.

I unhooked the return line at the bottom end, dumped the res then plugged that. Hooked a long looped hose on the return line and turned the wheel lock to lock 2X then refill, and repeat maybe 10X. Reconnected hose, refilled, leisurely had a Camel and worked it lock to lock however many times a cig is. Recheck, start engine, check for leak. 10 or 12 slow lock to locks with it running now. Kill, let sit, recheck, happy. Glad thats done, it was awful annoying and luckily the pump seems fine.

Typical 'junk luck... on my way to get new tires I had a flat. Nifffty. Wait maybe thats actually a luck upgrade. Anyway...

Who wants to take a stab at what to do to correct issues indicated on this alignment check printout from today? I'm all ears.

Gonna check out the tire pics I shot at sunset. Shoulders of the tread are a little trucky lookin to me actually but I'm initially very pleased with the tires. Hecho en Portugal. Hmm, OK. But man, they are really quiet and have better ride than I expected. And they DIG damn good, even in rain. It was raining when I left the tire shop so tried that out right away. This evening on dry I got nice launches out of it.

Mmm hot lunches. So what are you cooking?

Flied lice anda mice?

Everybody look, a stock GP! LOL. How about an eyeful of rusty fresh-washed mini-rotor? Yeeaaah! Glad to have my 4 shiny TS back on.

Ha. heres my new tires but you can't see the coolio tread. Dusk again. I like them so far. Any input good bad or indifferent on these?

You know for what that car has been through, it looks great! No input on those tires, I'm a Falken man myself.

lol...for some reason all this time i thought your user name was idrivedrunk. thats why in the scoop thread i called you drunk ..:th_hammerhead2:

I thought you were being pretty creative, that was a good laff for me! Honestly, I never touch that stuff.

well when you asked me if it was a fruedian slip i was like ...:th_scratchhead:...no just didn't wanna type it all out...lol
i need new glasses

Sure, never touch that stuff, but other stuff might come into play, lol. Probably why we get along so well lolol.

ololol... man I don't know where eric comes up with some of his posts but they keep me on my toes! Maybe he's our substance abuse specialist. Either that or I'm being prodded towards weedeating. There again with the subtle green tint.

Hank Hill would say: BoyItellyawhut... is a complete sentence in Texas. Induce vomiting, ha.

GTP drives great and tires roll good smoke cloud fast if I try, just not as long. They stripe asphalt like good grippys do. Caster, meh.

Well- OK then. I remembered I spaced my decent used tires at the put-um-on place. So I returned and nabbed what was usable, two, for future use as spares or on the GT. FYI and I don't know why... Michelin Hydro edge is noticeably heavier than AltiMax in same size. I mean damn thats a heavy tire, I almost want to search up the differences. But naw. But wow, it seems like a lot more weight for the same tire size.
