So, some dude posted offering to trade his bike for a boat on craigslist, but made the horrible mistake of mispelling boat as boar. I've decided to see if he's still willing to trade. :unsmigghh:

CL Ad: http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/boa/4860638733.html

My response:



Its me, I'm that terrible person you have to deal with on craigslist.

Im dumb, but I am not dumb enough to buy one. I have enough abuse with rovers.


No, I think its going to be something american the next time around. Either a Trans Am or a Mustang. But I am leaning towards the Mustang, just on the fact that people are asking stupid money for ratted out F-Bodies.

Things I do about rotten shocks and stuck stem nuts on same:
Use your largest pair of channel locks on them until they stop spinning.
Just dremel the drat nut in half on two sides and smash the halves off with a hammer and chisel.
Cut the stem with an angle grinder or boltcutters.

It is going in the scrap pile anyways... 130 bucks a ton is 130 bucks a ton. Use every dirty trick and destructive removal technique in the book :v:

CAT INTERCEPTOR
Nov 9, 2004

Basically a male Margaret Thatcher
Thw world just lost one big black catte. A very much loved Stig who instead of lingering as age rotted his organs, decided to greet the Grim Reaper of Cats on his own terms and attacked a car. Of course the car won but Stig was the very definition of a cat with 9 lives and he lived far FAR longer than he should have so while there is sorrow, there is still celebration that he had a much longer life than he should have as a kitten he was abandoned at a demolition site only to be caught and gaven a warm home. Let alone how he cheated death at least four more times in the ensuring years. No truer example of how tough Australian feral cat truly are. We're pretty certain he went out at the time he chose and finally allowed death to catch up with him.

Nearly 15 but always the cat that stopped me from doing something incredibly stupid years ago. If we live to be as cankerous and old as you did, we will have done well.

And now he's up there meowing the Gates down demanding to be fed.

RIP Stig, hope to see you one day many years in the future.

Pricing thermostats on Rockauto and Amazon. A Duralast from Autozone is $20 w/gasket. The dealer wants $63 without the gasket.

The OEM thermostat is $30 on Amazon, with gasket, shipped. An AC Delco Professional (i.e. someone paid to get the Delco name stamped on it) is $15 on RockAuto, $17 on Amazon shipped. There are also Gates and Stant options on Rockauto and Amazon for under $20. One of the Gates options is listed as "OE Exact".

There's also an outlet seal that I need (since the outlet tube has to be disconnected from the housing), but it's a whole $2.

I'm wondering quite where they're going to do this as the road surface on the ring road and virtually all surrounding roads isn't exactly safe for racing around at high speed. Like the start of your vid, if you take that ramp a bit faster your car physically hops sideways over every join in the road. I guess if nothing else we'll get to see lots of wrecked cars! :v:
