Buildup-(pictures-a lot)

Getting back on topic monkeys. When will you start driving it to school?

 

I still need to paint it which is happening pretty quick, fix my brake line that I struck an arc to and punched a pinhole in, then put some steering linkages in it, fool lines, electrical, lights, mount seats, fix the leaking engine, live with the leaking transfer case, register and drive it. Maybe december? I'm gonna try to get it in the year book. I didn't take senior pictures because I didn't want to, and I'd rather be in the yearbook 'cars' pics than my own portrait.

 

BTW Nice looking woodwork too.

 

It steers... if I wasn't an idiot and poked a pinhole in my brake line I'd be driving it right now.

 

The ARC welder is up there with those tools!!!
If I had brought the MIG back in the garage from the studio I'd be in business.

 

I :driving: it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

how'd it do.

 

Fun until I broked it.

 

How u break itR).

 

My finger hurts bad and I can hardly type so I'll copy paste my myspace bulletin


Starts out driving it in a quick circle and parking it, does great!
Bro comes out, drive it, back it home, does great! mom is home now, drive it quick, does great! Brother wants a ride, take him down the road, and come home, with NO brakes....
BANG CHUNK CHUNK CHUNK CHUNK CHUNK!!! Mom goes white, Neighbor yells NO DRIVE SHAFTS ANYMORE WATCH THEM!!!! I can't stop. I turn left, up hill, comes back, steers almost into my dads truck. Brother steers it, I get it to stop. Well, while he was steering I tried to throw a block under the front wheel and my middle finger got ran over, so, I have a blue nail, and may lose it.
A busted U Joint, lost hardware, leaking oil, bad brake line, and TONS of fun! Yep yep yep!!!

 

Ouch that sounds like it really hurts.

 

Take it from me. NEVER EVER EVER drive any car with no brakes...

 

Wait your brakes still weren't connected!?

 

I had my parking brake, which did fine, until my drive shaft went bye bye!

 

I thought you replaced the brake lines?

 

I can't bend a line to save my life... Pun intended
The shop ran new lines and I put a pin hole in one.

 

Hmmmmmmm. So how long do you think it will take to get back on the road? Did you put it in 4 wheel drive when it wouldn't go in your video. I can't tell which levers your using.

 

no drive shaft. I was trying hi range but since the timing is off it was missing and coughing and didn't want to progress

 

BTDT... scary indeed. I've done it once and once is enough.
