    What did you do to your shop today?

    Booked the lift install for next Wednesday. Fingers crossed I am not going to be buying a wall mount garage door opener too. Now I just need to put the Kitty back together and get the Monte down and out of the way.

    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    Bought my first rifle today... and promptly gave it to my daughters. I get to pass on more skills and knowledge: weapons handling, marksmanship principles, and dealing death.

    1992 Camaro "The Lady Mullet" Z28

    Gotta be old school to know about that saga. It took me a minute to find the threads. People don't understand that "sloppy" and Holdner's "turbo anything" started on the Turbo Forums. Happel just next levelled it. And Holdner helped mainstream it. If I remember correctly, the BBC Grenade...

    2019 Challenger Widebooty HellKitty (she's giving me the meatsweats...)

    Started the wiring tonight. Let's hope I get this right.

    A Fabricobbler's Guide to the Turbo Buick Galaxy- Cutlass Rehash

    Nice! I do not miss chasing Turbo Buick electrical gremlins and subbing in antique used parts in hopes of finding a "good one". Kept a bucket of spares in the spare tire well of my old Buick.

    What did you do at work today?

    Kicked the day off with a meeting, and sent a debrief to my colleagues. Then my phone rang. It was a great friend of Natasha and mine who just so happened to be on the email. A long chat occurred as we talked shop and got caught up. When it was all said and done I had his support in openly...

    1992 Camaro "The Lady Mullet" Z28

    Thanks for the offer, Nick. But, if I go turbo 305 it will be something like "the Grenade": https://www.theturboforums.com/threads/how-long-till-it-grenades-it-never-did-go-figure-grenade-part-2-to-come.305001/...

    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    I sh*t you not... this email just came in at work: ----- CANADA GEESE ADVISORY FOR THE NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION Situation Defense Team members are reminded that NDHQ(Carling) is in the green belt and is home to various migrating wildlife such as Canada Geese. Please note that Canada Geese are...

    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    We took the kids to the zoo on Friday and watched a goose dive-bomb a mountain goat. You'd swear they are winged honey badgers. Also, they nest wherever they want, like right in the middle of a path or sidewalk or in a planter. They make mean faces and sounds. We didn't allow our kids'...

    To tow or not to tow partiers cars parked in my yard

    Dragon's Teeth? Czech Hedgehog? Spike strips? and I have no idea why this came up on my feed... but, this might work too? Digging the ditches... not stripping the deck, or getting a rooster. But, then again... an attack rooster might be funny.

    1980 Pontiac LeMans Station Wagon - G-T-faux (stuck with it, and can't shake it... like a bad case of herpes)

    Non-shitpost post: Can anyone confirm that the outer fender liner bolts are M8 x 1.25? They bolt into the speed/caged nuts that clip to the fender lip.

    Seems we are both shitposting in our own threads today to keep them from being time locked.

    1992 Camaro "The Lady Mullet" Z28

    My brother and I used to dream about taking the 4.3L taxi cab crank and plopping it into a LT1 block and making a late-model 302. I know it has been done, but we were talking about this 20+ years ago. DZ302 is my favourite muscle car engine of all time. Stupid sexy, Duntov.

    MONTE CARLO "COPO" Monte Carlo SS - Turbosaurus Build (Swinging Dick Racing's c*ck got bent... she bounced a little too high & hard, & came down awkwardly)

    At the 5 min mark he touches on one of my biggest worries: making the car not what I want it to be due to self-inflicted mission creep. Perfection is problematic. The risk of me ruining this car is real.

    1992 Camaro "The Lady Mullet" Z28

    LFX or LGX with a turbo would be a good fit too.

    What did you do to your shop today?

    Left one of the garage doors open for hours with the heater running after getting the girls' bikes setup, and getting distracted by my youngest having a meltdown about not being proficient. Then I got back to working on Natasha's Z28 and forgot all about it. No one thought to remind me that I...
