yeah my only worry is this being like a domino affect after the motor swap if other things start going wrong. but thanks i appreciate it!
I slid my formula off the road in a deal snow storm 3 and a half years ago, gotta love Utah weather. I've been slowly piecing her back together but sering everyday and not being able to drive her really sucks, I can't imagine not having one period. That's why I'll never sale mine.

Innsurancr didn't give you money for the stolen car or anything?
Not too bad really, put a new track and pinion in last fall and was able to drive it, just not wanting to jump the gun. I want to replace all the suspension before committing it to a daily driver again, she bounced pretty bad. It's just taking forever because I started a divorce 5 months later and now have child support, a new wife and 2 new kids and another on the way. Love my car but my family more.Quote:

Sorry to hear that... Child support? Good luck with that. Yeah no argument there family first
the only thing i hate about owning a fbody is that guys always want to steal them,i dont hear about GTOs being stolen as much as t/a's and camaros,i knew a guy who had his 01 ss stolen,he never saw it again,then he got a 01 t/a someone stole that too so he was done with fbodys and got a g8Quote:

Damn. That sucks. As far as I know, there's not really a bad car stealing problem around here, but some assholes WILL break into your stuff or beat it to pieces, especially if they don't like you. There was something that went down about six or seven years ago where a guy left his car in front of his apartment. Came back and it had been totaled by a guy with a baseball bat.Quote:
