don't talk bad about it too loud; if it hears you, it might decide to fall out from under the truck on my way home from work tomorrow, lmao

I started it and moved it down the driveway! Sorry, but I have little to be excited about... been out of work for 3 months and that's what I did.... move it so I could open the garage door. But if it matters, I'm happy the garage door opened!!!!
Next month will be different, I swear. Maybe I'll get to close the garage door.

Flushed the brakes on the wife's '92. Cool.

My '86 needs a rear diff UJ. Haven't had time for it. Knock on wood it'll wait for me.

Been working on my Peugeot 505, mostly.<<<<and, THAT made me happy. Neat little car. Heated seats. Woooooohhhhooooo!

Can you say warm ass nice?

Thank you much, Clint.<<hugs>> I had to post in your thread, you know?

Been well enough. Could be better......could be worse. Busy as usual...pffth.

Got this little '89 Pug 505, with another....a 405 Mi16....on the way. It's all Bosch Jetronic EFI. Everything Denso is based on. Oughtta be an interesting education. It's been the highlight of my days as of late.

That and some home made Irish Cream and a bundle of Nicaraguans!

What?! Scuba had Abe's fingers? Odd. Since when did Abe father a Scuba?

I've been driving around in the snow all night...and didn't crash!!!

...If that counts?

And removed all the interior out of my 86 and about to install my bucket seats, and somehow do some type of floor. Other than that, I'm going to be dropping the auto tranny out really soon...and hopefully either just buying 1 transfer case with gears, or do a doubler

Continuous (Constant) Injection System- Extended (Emission)... so many acronyms. Hmm... maybe that was L-Jetronic?
