Mom's Outback infront of the black maxima's garage door
Then since the durango had the tow dolly my sister drove my Dad's 5th gen up, that was parked behind the Jimmy.
All that was left was my dads bimmer and my mustang and we would have a full driveway. Come and get me HOA!

It has a good tranny, and a few other parts I wanted/needed for my car. I would like the black car again, but i would spend too much time detailing it, we'll see

Body is alittle rough, same with the interior. We'll see. Right now I'm going to swap all the good parts over to my white car (I guess, I like the black but
). Swap engines into the black car and sell it for a small profit.small ammount of OT:
During the Drive my Dad came up with the idea that if I move back in with him, get back to BCC, and sell all my cars then I can "have" (but not have have) the 5th gen to drive then I can put all that money into a mutual fund or some kind of investment. Only thing is then I will have a 'leash' on me, plus its a 5th gen
. Mewants to keep my white maxipad and my scarey car

Hey, Shawn. I think I mentioned this before, but I will sell you all of the stuff from my old engine for $150 with a brand new engine stand ($50 value). The bottom half should be fine and you can take the heads/intake/injectors/coil packs from the black car (mine could still be good, but I don't know...). You can also have all of the boxes of misc parts, which include the JDM equipment and a lot of wire connectors and stuff. The only thing I want off of it are the rebuilt VTCs and the coil packs. I already sold the injectors. With all of that stuff and what you have on the car, you should easily be able to put something together with a little labor on your part.
If you know someone with a small pickup (that gets 20 mpg or better), it would only cost you about $50 in gas round trip. The gas expense goes up quite a bit for a big truck, though. I think I spent about $75 (maybe a little more) on my mom's truck when I came up there last time, but hers is a diesel and gets crap gas mileage because of the stuff done to it.
Try to let me know soon, since I need to give the engine hoist back probably in the next few weeks or so.

Need new ones

chrgdRapa, I forgot your name
no worries, I already said I don't have an interest in parting it out. I just need to get under the car and take a gander at it, and charge up the battery then will let you know whats up. If I dont bother trying to make it run you have first dibs

charged up the battery for ~7 hours yesterday. Gonna check the oil then do a compression test, I could just run it for a few mins and take a video for you guys
I gotta go help my Dad move a clients spa for a few hours though, then help anton wire his maxipad up for an amp.

Then it wasn't rod knock. If it was, it wouldn't have lasted 1 month, less a year

it was rod knock.
The oil filter let all the oil out on the ground.
I refilled it with straight 30 and STP
Ran like that for a year.
and you can drive a rod knocker for a very long time if you take care of it.
