Michael needed some things so yesterday I grabbed 7 sq feet of 1/8 inch plate at 75 cents a pound. 

Today Lil Stampie is taking an entrance exam for his next school so I hit the junkyard. No pictures of the first truck. Let's just say I fought a crushed front end to get water pump bolts. Couldn't get to one bolt so went looking around. Next vehicle was this.

Mother berker wish I had seen it first. 

Seems like every LS was missing the MAS but I finally found one and took the rest of the air intake track.

Unfortunately the manager was standing right behind the cashier so I got nickled and dimed for everything. Oh well that makes up for Pat's free battery hold down.

Were 4 pages in, abd no wrenches have been turned anywhere near the car.

Probably time to change that.

Angry, this steps for you!

Tonight i go to Greensboro for some stupid cheap dash and console parts. For some reason, i want the interior mostly complete before really anything else. Other than brakes. Brakes would be nice.

You need to post a picture of the dash/console so I can show Lil Stampie what he got for Christmas.

You and every restaurant or coffee shop employee I've ever encountered. Don't feel too bad about it.

A little chuckle... 

In that meeting above, who really met the "interesting person"? 

On one hand we have a guy who takes apart Corvettes (meh.) On the other hand we have a guy creating an unholy union. Ha.

My bad but I'm blaming Michael as I copied him. I'll write Daylan 100 times as punishment.

Wait, square coils or round coils? I may have a used set for square coils in my shop. Came off my 06 6.0L because I received a set of new in box NGK wires free and I was changing plugs any ways... I'll double check tonight if I kept them or tossed them. Shipping may be a bit expensive to cross the border tho...

In reply to DjGreggieP :

I appreciate the offer. However we now have one complete and another almost complete set of coils. So I'd rather see you send yours on to somebody else that may need them more than us.

First Seth makes a comment about me and the seats trading diseases. Now  you make the comment that I am the more interesting one in the pair of the guy that ports out Corvettes with a goatee and a green Mohawk from behind an Alpine cabin in Greensboro and me. Not sure how I should feel about this. I'm going to choose honored.

He has square coils. I'll answer for him.

I'll check to see if I kept them or tossed them. I may have kept them since both my brother and mother have square coil ignition setups.
