black- 00 camaross&02 trans am
So how has everyone elses car been this year
Lets see who has the most repairs in this year or thing that needed to get done.
So far I am up to
1 transmission
1 set of brakes all the way around
1 transmission mount (knew that fucker didn't sound right when I bought it.)
2 New tires
Set of new tires locks last owner took the fucking key
Plus alot of other little odds and ends.
And now today looks like a new flywheel and starter and it isn't even summer yet.
Sorry had to rant this is pissing me off on all the repairs.

My car has been very good to me (knock on wood). The only things I can think of are a blow-out on the Firehawks, which I replaced with Falkens, the leaking pinion seal, which I fixed when I did the 410's, and those iritating little cracks on the tops of my doorpanels, which I haven't figured out how to fix yet.
