great thing about working on a bike with a trunk is you always have somewhere to store your tools

nice little side by side. smoke is sooo much nicer than clear, bet that'll go great with red eh?

ok, so i lost one of the little rubber feet that supports the light after the side by. took me about thirty minutes to find that (fell in one of the tool boxes) then i lost my beer. FUCK...oh there it is. alright lets spend another twenty minutes fiddling this thing in there and..damn that does look good.

now that thats all done lets start tucking some of this shit away and bolt this sucker back up

http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b369/Khajjathefang/0203102029.jpg

http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b369/Khajjathefang/0203102048.jpg

You officially SUCK Dave....the two cars I'd actually own and tinker non-stop with if I had a 7-bay garage

[Rider]

Is that a 240 Z? Looks pretty clean.

[marko138]

DAMN YOU MOTHERFUCKERS. Shitty PB posts.

[Dave]

You officially SUCK Dave....the two cars I'd actually own and tinker non-stop with if I had a 7-bay garage

heh they're both gonna be up for sale in a month or so. Cant afford to insure the nsx anymore since the cut in pay after changing jobs and the 240z is so clean id hate myself for modding it. besides, ive got the new project car itch ;)

[CasterTroy]

Ever since Darius did his 240 years ago...I've wanted to do the very same thing....and yes...involves LOTS of butchering! Just needed to find the right car (and WAD's of cash)

[Dave]

thats def a nasty car. I had considered an rb swap but that requires an ungodly rare oil pan from a 200zr. and again shes just a bit too clean ;)

[Sixxxxer]

Job switch???

Eh?

[Dave]

Job switch???

Eh?

no im still at carshare. i was referring to when i was still working active duty at ft dix a year or so back, and also when dave was still here. dropping to part time army lost a bit under a grand a month and dave was 7-800.

[Sixxxxer]
