Oh I am. I have no sympathy for this level of stupidity. I lose brain cells every time I read through an update of the Tynan saga.

I try to remember that theres ALWAYS someone that knows more than me. Someone that has more money. A nicer car, a faster car.. That list goes on and on. None of us were born with a wrench in our hands as we came out of the womb. A friend of mine used to help me out on my projects. He could do just about anything mechanical on just about everything that has an engine. Right down to paint. Very talented. He moved south a few years ago. All the years of having Jeeps and project cars taught me a lot. Him helping me taught me a lot more. But in the end theres still stuff I know and admit I cant do. I'd never be able to build a motor. Im decent with a spray gun but I'd never be able to spray a whole car. Wouldnt even attempt it. Im well aware of my limitations. And theres many.
Im sure if Tynan had someone to work with him and show him how to do things correctly he'd be in a totally different situation. Just sayin.
Well supposedly he has his great grandpappy-whatever who is/was a mechanic that he could've learned from so I'm gonna say that myth is busted.
You've seen how well he takes advice here. I can't see how he'd be any better in person. Besides the fact that he completely refuses to accept responsibility for anything thus far despite the fact that he's the only one working on this pile. Not to mention his stellar work ethic. I don't know why you guys continue to make excuses for him.
OP's limitations more likely resemble crayons and paste than wrenches and camshafts.
He has mentioned his grandfather with 40+ years of being a "mechanic".
In the end of the day tho it comes down to how much he would listen and absorb. Lots of knowledge here that was delivered politely and then told we don't know what we are talking about because some guy on the other forums can clean his engine out with a garden hose. If he knows better well have at it.
One would think all of us with running and driving cars instead of broken shitpiles would speak for itself.
End of the day it's not my problem and I'm here for the conversation now. The guy has come in with a chip on his shoulder to prove us wrong. Let's see it.
I loved both of those guys. Both are great but the nod for me goes to Red.... Called the situation for what it was.
Wow, I can’t believe I just read all 12 pages of this. Not sure whether to laugh or cry….
