the humble life of my maverick....

Well Fred I posted on the other board already but I'll say it again, LOOKS REAL GOOD!!! And you might as well come to the round up with or without your car, John really needs a partner that can drink until 4 or 5am and I just can't do it anymore. Maybe you can officiate or something.

 

Yes Fred.......I would really look silly out in the field at 5 am all by myself!
There will be alot of stuff to keep you busy: drinking, drinking, drinking and .......drinking!!!
Plus since Robert is gonna have his car there this year(hopefully) you can help at the track with the tree and stuff........plus there is a rule if you do not have a car there you do not have to pay for the beer........I think its called a desinated driver.

 

Don't worry John, me and my brother will be there with you till the wee hours of the morning!!! Gotta give it one last Hoorah before the wedding!!!!

 

Thats the spirit!

Becky is already saying: " I am not gonna see you all week, am I?"

 

Edit..somehow I posted in this thread by mistake...Peace

FRED

where did you get the hood

did it fit ok?

How much did it cost??

 

Jeremy,

The hood was somewhere in the neighborhood of $450. It fits like garbage. It's an Unlimited Products hood and if I paid $10 for it I still feel like I got ripped off. The sad part is that it does have a nice shape but the quality just is not there. Unfortunately there were not very many options back when I got it. It will be replaced after I get it completely together.

 

primer

john i feel your pain.it seems with all the crap i have bought for mine over the winter the original quote i got from my body guy of $2000 for a complete paint will be much higher ie rear grabber spoiler,original sport mirrors,new front bumper,new grill,new windshield rubber seal ,i think that's it,will be much higher.i will have to live with a primer grey car for probably 2 mos. until i can regroup funds for final paint.taking it to him real soon so the primer wont be on past may.good luck with your car.this is before hope to post after by 06/01/04.

 

well, I played with the car yesterday.
Changed the wheel studs out, inner/ outer bearing, securely mounted the new fuel cell and a few other things. But the real joy came from working with Noah(my 5 year old son) him and I had a great time!!!.........And let me tell you, he got under the car to hold the bolts when I was tightening the bracket for the cell and he is a strong little fellow! We had a good time working on the car and THAT is really what it is all about.
