'75 EB2 but it's a wierd cross over build because it's got the unicorn horn strut tops that were supposed to be 73-74 only, so basically 74 only in the US as far as practicality goes, as well as the older alternator. A '77 will basically be the same car but two stalks on the column instead of dash lights and wipers, the less obscene strut tops, and a Keihin 2bbl carb if a 1200 instead of the Hitachi. Intake manifold bolt spacing is different for the Keihin so it's an identical manifold just with the different studs so the two don't readily play nice unless doing carb/manifold together.

Because you had the stereo up and it starts with a loud, piercing shriek? Or because you recoiled in horror so hard from the bad joke that you fell over and hit the ground, and they thought that maybe you had finally OD'd (on whatever they mentally think you do) and that closing the windows gave them plausible deniability?

Nah I had my phone volume maxed and I finished the whole thing.





I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's just something intriguing about a well-read open mineed self professed theater geek that catches my eye and makes me want to build a castle on those huge tracts of land. I mean, I always have had quite the passion for drama.

I liked how tinder didnt bother with any of their usual little helpful ice breaker "tell a funny story that you know" type bullshit. They skipped straight to the "Sir, it will forever be my honor to have met you" *heels click stiff salute final showdown musical score begins to crecendo*



Besides, ice breaking is a walk in the park when it's got RMS Titanic stenciled across its bow.




And with introductions made using just one plagiarized line pretty much verbatim camouflaged amongst slightly warmed over rehashed previous material like any true author, we wait and see if the bait is taken or if they wind up being totally normal and see through the ruse and then through the broken man child on the other end.

Well its got phallus in its name, and I got that T shirt saying I gambled and won when I finished that 38 ounce steak at AJ Spurs just outside Solvang (Strongly recommend to any Cali goons who may pass nearby, I would just as strongly not count on winning again as the following morning's odds are stacked heavily in favor of the house meat sweats), so yeah I see no reason we can't just run another round once we finish the research and testing phase on any subjects not found to be within operating specifications.

Dear lord, I know we don't always see eye to eye. We don't talk much at all except when I need something. I am not a good friend, and I want to do better. All I ask is that this steering rack bolt inside the subframe channel is merely gunked in with age and not because it was torqued to yield. There are children present, and I really do not want to go to jail for the things I would then be forced to do. Hail Satan, amen.

I don't know whether or not I should go back to the instructors who guided and taught me my trace and punch them in the loving mouth for knowing the lies they told and the path they set forth for me, or run sobbing into arms I know will be waiting outstretched and just cry, cry into that comforting embrace because somebody finally understood what I needed most.

He's going the distance
He's probably on speed
That dude needs to chill
Maybe smoke some weed

His heart's racing and pacing and madly off course
It's clearly dead but he's still beating on that horse
The wrench is loving gone and he needs it of course
He's swearing and crying and his heart fills with remorse

He's going the distance
He's probably on speed
He's going that distance.....?




"Lord, you said once I decided to follow you,
You'd walk with me all the way.
But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed You the most, You would leave me."

Figured out where the power came from. Camaro managed to coast to a stop in front of a bus stop in the rain after it died without warning and then had no brake assist trying to slow down, so I guess we can close that case

They told me with a straight face that I'd make good money with a well respected trade in high demand and even spoke praisingly of the opportunities that book time granted to those who were fast and good. They either did so with malice and bitterness in their hearts, or because they knew a cubicle job for me would somehow, somewhere involve the term 'active shooter.'

At first I thought "that tarp is protecting 14 from the street grime" and then I realized that no, it's intended to protect the street from the 14 grime.

And yet, the rainbow sheen of grease and confrontational denial still coils away off the tarp, a reminder of the Universal Law of Conservation of Filth: it is impossible to make something clean without making something else dirty.



Why, Lord, were there only one set of footprints in the sand?

It finally clicks. You channel Hunter S. Thompson so much, yet you are not at all like him; rather, you are John Constantine.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4u_Llq6QbA

The devil's got your name, son, but you found a loophole: despite your bloody-mindedness, filthy habits, and dangerous habit of seeking out the most troubled cars for exorcism rites, you're willing - eager, even - to sacrifice for someone, even if they don't deserve it. So Lucifer will just have to wait.

That clip cuts too early... the devil pulls out his cancer so he can stay alive (and sin some more) rather than lose him to heaven.

Should check out the original comics, if you're in to that sort of thing. The guy is a very entertaining rear end in a top hat jerk with a haunted past who fucks around constantly but would die to save someone without hesitation even though he knows he's going to hell.

Nah I know who Constantine is and that's easily one of my more favored interpretations of the Morning Star Himself. I'd just never made that comparison before and its been a while since I saw it so as soon as I saw him on his way up I was like man I'd totally be gIving the devil the bird and bam there it was.
