Or he's driven it off a cliff and is in jail for insurance fraud.

That's very interesting. If you like beaters wrenching more than driving, an old Trimuph should be right up your alley.

Guy in my local AutoX club has spent and ABSURD amount of time/money on various Triumph motorcars...

Then again he's not as bad as the guy with the '65 Mustang.

Upon looking at the diagram and looking at the picture, I think you're all right.

I am not responsible for you grenading your motor. Turn it over with the wrench a bunch.

Oh, I thought he'd taken the Civic motor apart or something. I didn't realize that was the s2k motor.

Dude, are you my long-lost brother? I think you are the only other incredibly unlucky person I know of with cars besides me (three dead E30s, one dead E36, totaled but repaired Volvo, and a dead Miata). Also the transmission in the Volvo is dead.

Are you going to buy it back?

Don't you think he's gone through enough already?

I totally want to see if Adiabatic has the same luck with bodywork as he did with motors :haw:
