Thats one reason I'm thinking of striping it, and transform it to rear wheel drive. But the government would have a heart attack when I go through emissions. After market EFI's have come a long way. If it blows clean, Why can't I register it. Even though a lot of the aftermarket stuff is better than the factory all together. I can't wait to have to dive into an issue on the Colorado. You fart in the cabin and it freaks out.

It's all about the money, they won't even run it if there's one little item missing, the whole thing BS.

They failed my Nova because I had a "T" in the evac hose coming from the charcoal canister. I was trying too limit the large vacuum flow that made a huge throttle lag. So I replaced the hose and hid the restriction up near the carb in the hose. No gas fumes and no throttle lag. Sucker passed with flying colors.

This has been a sh!t week so far and I have 2 more days to go. We have been talking about getting away. But, we need to find a baby sitter for a for a tortus we acquired when the daughter moved.to South Dakota. we need to find him a new home. He has dug a hole to get out of the heat. He's about 12" long, so.it's a good size hole. Want a turtle named Chuck?? He's an African Spiked turtle.

He's like a slow dog when you can get him out of his hole. Doesn't make noise. Not much of a watch dog either. Need to work on his fetch skills too.

Another sh!t week in the books. Put 50 hours in. haven't got much done this weekend. Been replacing door handles that are just flat wore out. I got 2 done this weekend. That's 5 done. Takes a bit to get them done. I have to chisel a little notch to clear the new latch. Once that's done everything mounts up. I ordered.a rotary/dremel tool with bits to hopefully make this project go easier and quicker.

YEP!! The Sh!t week has started. Last weeks sh!t show continues into this week. When you have coworkers that are lazy and don't do anything but complain, It really takes you down and burns you out trying to get things done. I was asked if I was actively looking for something ells. I said YEP!!!

WOW!! only 10 years old. Sure don't build them like they used to. Just like everything ells. Make them cheaper and raise the price. I sure hope these people are enjoying their $15+ an hour burger jobs.

Put the Monte back together yesterday, Need to get rid of it. I just don't have time to deal with it. Honestly I really don't want to deal with it. Not sure if I can get $1500 out of it, but that's were we are going to start. Sucker runs and drives fine, AC works great, body is in good shape except the front bumper and hood. Interior is good, Dash top needs to be replaced and the driver seat won't move front and back. Need it out of the driveway as well. Someone that knows what the electrical issue is would have a driver for cheep.

It's an 06. I put it on Market Place yesterday and have a guy coming to look at it tonight. I put it up for $2100. If I can get $1500 out of it I'll be happy. Need the thing out of the driveway.

I have had a few lookie lou's, but they seem to go away when cash is mentioned. My guess a bunch of low life's. There's someone out there that will take it. Just got to find them.

It kills me how people don't read or pay attention. I put on the add that if the add is here, it's available. You wouldn't believe how many send a message asking if it's still available. I'm not even responding to them idiots. I was asked why it needed a turn signal switch. Haven't heard from that idiot since I replied "I can't get the Turn Signals to Work". On top of everyone wanting sh!t for nothing. Then there are the ones that think there used up 10 year old sh!t is worth as much as new sh!t. I talked to a couple friends here and they said with all the crap that wrong with it, I shouldn't have NOO problem getting $1500. It runs and drives with good AC. Except for the front bumper and hood, the body is in pretty good shape.
