Damn- I'm in Rolla right now, but I'm heading to St. Louis tomorrow for an optometrist appointment.

What are your plans for Friday night after dropping the trailer?

porsche4life 05-26-2010 10:23 PM

Dropping the trailer then going to Rib America... I told Jeremy that you might try to come... So he should have us 4 passes...

Good morning guys.

I got my spring plates off last night. Now all I have left to do is R&R the rubber bushings and re assemble. I suspect that will take longer than removal.

I am off to work to earn some jack so I can keep Wayne profitable and he will continue the board. See the sacrifices I do for you.

Glen do you want to compare reciepts? I think I might win. I've sent a little over 700 to Wayne so far...

I have a sister and her fambly in Rolla. Made the trip from OKC to Rolla in 4 hours one 4th of July in a 928GT. That included stopping for a meal in Joplin. Made it back in the same time.

Phffffftttttt. You piker.

700 bucks ain't nothing. I have lots of "while I am in there" upgrades and fixes. I have that much in torsion bars and shocks alone. Add in 4 new rotors and brake pads, caliper rebuild kits, ball joints, turbo tie rods, bump steer kit, front and rear sway bar bushings, coil, fuel pump, tensioner oil lines, and lots more. I don't want to add up all the parts.

I bet I have a couple of hundred in new tools just to do everything.

The crazy thing is I am having fun doing it all.

porsche4life 05-27-2010 07:04 PM

700 was just that water pump stuffs...

I spent 200 on that VW before I sold it...

1k to paragon for suspension... Still need another K to finish...

GH85Carrera 05-27-2010 07:15 PM

This is like comparing scars. I really don't want to total my parts cost. I know it is more than my 1st brand new car cost. It is less than my new 1974 2.0 914 cost (so far).

I could run a report in Quicken and know to the penny, but that ain't gonna happen. I don't wanna know.

HHI944 05-27-2010 07:23 PM

$700??? That's like an OEM shock for a series rover (OK, you might be able to get 1 shock and 1 leaf spring for that)

Geronimo '74 05-27-2010 09:14 PM

Morning guys,

I'll be the first to say it...

Thank
God
It's
Friday

livi 05-27-2010 09:49 PM

Morning, Don Geronimo and the rest of you Sisters!

Geronimo '74 05-27-2010 10:04 PM

What's with the attitude Doc??
Are you popping macho pills?? (can I have some?)

livi 05-27-2010 10:19 PM

Well, as mentioned, its Friday. You may call me Doc Holiday. Pills for everyone!

Geronimo '74 05-27-2010 10:42 PM

Well that's just cool....


Morning chaps. Just ate a free hot breakfast served at the hotel. Leaving in a bit to go drop the trailer at Schumis and then we are off to check out st louis

GH85Carrera 05-28-2010 05:42 AM

Good Morning guys .

TGIF is correct!

GH85Carrera 05-28-2010 10:01 AM

Just bumping back to page one.

It looks like I am going on a sailplane ride Sunday. That should be an interesting diversion from working on the rear suspension.
