I had a possibly life changing October, in a good way so maybe Im the exception to that rule. Im also glad to know that chope is adiabatic since he is a good snapper. I didnt see the lawn mowing one though and Im sad about that since I mow lawns for a living. Snapchat is so buggy so Im not surprised that I missed it. e: Im shitfartasspoop on snapchat

BraveUlysses posted:Last week my WRX had a monster radiator blowout on the plastic part at the top of the radiator. ordered a mishimoto all aluminum radiator with 1 day delivery from amazon. I just got another set of Stitch pajamas today in the mail for some reason. Got the one I used for Halloween like a month ago so I have no idea what happened, just checked Amazon and I definitely was only charged for one I wish it was 2 radiators! Anyone want to buy some Stitch pajamas? If not there going in my secret santa package

Sitting at the DMV right now for the 56 International, hopefully its not a huge pain in the rear end with such an old truck.

I got the plates for the 56! I was worried it was going to be a hassle because of the age and how long its been off the road plus probate and everything but that part went smooth. Then as soon as I got up to the window the printers in the entire DMV went down and I didnt think it was going to happen. I planned on waiting there until the printers started working or the cops took me away. e: Motronic thats beautiful

The Royal Nonesuch posted:There's an interesting old guy who's lived on my street for years. He's got a beater old E30 and some kind of well-worn old Chevy truck set up for camping trips. When he moved there, he was constantly outside tinkering on that beat up old BMW - it's a piece of poo poo, but you could tell how much he loves it. His garage is the ownage kind that barely has enough room to move because it is filled with tool chests and grinders and manuals. I didn't see him for awhile, and then one day he was back outside in a robe, with an IV stand, hovering over the open hood of the e30. I stopped to say hi and apparently he'd suffered a couple of bad strokes, but was okay and still tinkering. I saw him less and less, but today I was driving home in my E46 and saw his hood up/door open, so I pulled up to say hi again. I love this story but it makes me sad

Aww man 13 Inch, thats so sad and lovely for you Sorry dude. I just went through the same thing with my ex this last year, the girl I was with when I was out your way earlier this year. Some of the things that went wrong with us are scarily similar to your situation. Ill get in touch with you next time I have a chance, maybe later today, so you can vent to me if you want.

It's not like I'd really have time to hang out anyways, but it just kind of sucks :\. Also blows not having any work space for my car/bike, but I guess thats why I sold all my beaters and got new(er) poo poo.

keykey posted:Just found out my great uncle died and so it has came to pass that the last one of his generation in our family is gone. At least he published a book on his experiences on WW2 in Iwo Jima and other places in and around Japan including getting malaria and having a pet monkey while stationed in the Philippines after his malaria days. Dude was awesome. Aww man, sorry dude that sucks. Im really close with my great aunt and uncle and I dread the day I lose them. Your uncle sounds like he was a cool dude. Mine is too, he worked on the US space program from the beginning until the late 80s and hes one of the smartest guys I know.

blk posted:I was at my local Kroger colony today and impulse bought a Hot Wheels car to throw in with my secret santa gift. I normally self-checkout but the line was long so I went to a regular checkout. The clerk asked me "Shall I bag this up or would you like me to leave it out for you to play with on your ride home?" I said: "Thanks man, no bag - that IS my ride home." There was an overweight old man behind me who started guffawing, then laughing really loud, like a literal "HAW HAW HAW," and he reached out to brace himself while he held his gut laughing, and fell and hit his head on the edge of the conveyor belt on the check out counter before falling backwards into the rack of tabloids and candy. He was bleeding from the mouth and I was worried his organs were finally giving up until I saw the teeth on the floor. I hope you're happy, Secret Santee - someone paid full price in flesh for your gift. Oh my god, hahahaha, that guy rules. Best story Ive heard in a while.

So 2014 might be looking up for me. I do some work for one of my customers on his old cars when there is something he cant do. He loves cars and knows a little about them but hes not much of a mechanic so he calls me when he needs something. I got his 48 Buick Roadmaster back running and stopping a few years back when he wanted to sell it, stuff like that. He just retired and hes fairly well off and wants to flip old cars for profit and he wants to hire me to both figure out what we could make money on and to do all the mechanical work. If it works out its seriously a dream come true. I told him last night the best thing to do it get stuff from the south and west to bring back here to the Northeast and said he will fund it. I have a meeting with him on Dec 4th to go over the details some more. Definitely going to need some help from goons local to anything I find to go look at the car and pay a finders fee. I'm soooooo stoked!

kastein posted:Roll the dice. Do you trust your ability to do seals without boogering them up? I didn't, and they looked like they weren't leaking, so I left em the gently caress alone, then they started leaking a month later I did the TB what, 2 years ago or whatever it was when I put the Sams engine in. No leaks yet but I probably just jinxed myself.

Oh god, ask me about the rear intake gasket on the C10. I think I replaced it 5 times so far, this time seems to be holding up so far since its been more than a week since Ive done it.

So since I was trying to be optimistic about 2014 my great, great aunt died on Sunday which isnt that crazy since she was 95 and had Alzheimers for 4-5 years. She was the nicest, sweetest person in the whole world and it sucks but we knew it was coming. Then yesterday my dad totalled his 2009 Roush 427R Mustang. It only had a little over 10k miles on it and if hes telling me the truth he wasnt even loving around with it at the time. He spun out though and crashed backwards through the median and then spun around and crashed the front into a tree. Its so, so totalled.

Raluek posted:You mean the rear china wall? I thought the conventional wisdom was to just discard the gasket and use a big gob of RTV in its place. Oh I tried that too, its just been nothing but sadness until this time. I made my own gaskets out of cork and glued them down with indian head shellac, let that dry then put the intake on and let it dry again, then torqued it down. So far so good!

Well my dad still has the 85 5.0 I sold him years ago so depending on what happens with insurance the SC 4.6 from the Roush might go into that, which would be tits on a ritz.

Raluek posted:drat, dude, that sucks. It could have been a lot worse, so I'm glad that was all that happened. Bright side is it looks like there's a spot in the stable for a new GT350. Yea I actually put in a PCV system. Its an old block that had a road draft tube but I converted it. e: Im just glad my old man is ok, with that car and the way he gets carried away it could have been much much worse.

Raluek posted:Yeah that's why I asked. Hmm, I got no idea then. I guess it holds, so who cares, right? Hah, it was a project. I found a rubber stopper that fit into the hole where the RDT went into the block and cut a hole to put the PCV valve into the rubber stopper. It doesnt sound like a big deal now but finding just the right size stopper took some time. Then I just hooked the PCV hose to the same spot on the carb that the vacuum brakes would have hooked to. My brakes are manual.

Raluek posted:Oh yeah, you have the early valve covers, too. I guess there's no difference between the brake inlet and pcv one? I think they both get manifold vacuum. Guess that works out, since the PB inlet is even on the rear of the carb on Edelbrocks. Good deal. Yea I have the no-holes valve covers with the tall oil fill on the front of the manifold and both just get straight manifold vacuum.
