  1. What resources are you lacking, Tom?
  2. I went to meet Gary (the friend selling it) and talk on the phone with the owner about this car yesterday, so I'll give an honest review. I think this car should stay local rather than some crypto/tik-tok rich poser buying it for a stance and stretch tire look. The exterior is an 8/10. Body work's perfect, a slight rub mark on the rear fender lip. It's interior is immaculate and comfortable. All gauges function. A/C works. The 5.0 is a hydraulic roller motor and fuel injected. The k-member is custom fabricated making the motor look like it was meant to be there. It's bone stock and feels like it. Probably making about 220whp but lots of room to grow. The only drawbacks I felt was the oem brakes were spongy and difficult in traffic. Those can be upgraded for about 1k and a mustang master cylinder was retrofitted to the vehicle so it has enough juice to handle some big brakes. It has a high rpm vibration that I would bet is due to the a harmonic balancer deteriorating or the driveshaft needing balanced. He's asking 25k and if it goes to BaT I fully expect it to go for 35+. Someone buy it.
  3. He's a friend from college years. He went to the NASCAR Technical Institute in NC, graduated and immediately started working for Germain Easton. He was a top talent and flown to Germany to train for months with AMG techs in all things Mercedes. If it's got a German badge, it's his "Haus".
  4. https://howlandautohaus.com/ Literally the best place to go.
  5. Other than repairs and consumables I hope this is what "done" looks like. So far I'm impressed with the MM package. I meant to catch a track day this past monday at MO but the wife and kid shared their sick with me Sunday morning. Thankfully there is one more day available to shakedown the car before August.
  6. In my experience Quaker is the place to be in the evenings. Food, beer, burnouts. Update, not gonna make it my kids a mess. But it appears to be poppin’ off down there.
  7. I might check out the qs&l shenanigans tonight.
  8. The motor's got an e-cam, long tubes and full exhaust. 10 qt baffled pan, pickup tube and crank scraper. The chassis has: MM CC plates MM coilovers Dspec dampers MM shock mounts MM control arms MM torque arm MM lower controls MM Subframe connectors MM front/rear sways MM bumpsteer kit MM steering shaft MM panhard bar s197 GT500 Brembo front brakes BFG Rival tires Think that's about it, I may be missing a thing or two.
  9. It needs a wash and the livery put on but if you see the green bandaid on the fender - where I effed up the wrap - that's what the sponsor stickers and numbers look like as well. Plan is to shakedown the car next weekend and race GLTC at Mid-Ohio in August. Then will likely hit CMC in September with NASA assuming no incidents or breakage. Now the vultures can come use my lift! :eyes: http://imgshare.io/image/pxGoI8 http://imgshare.io/image/pxGQwK
  10. Man that sucks. We had a way better time on our WV trip

    I’m almost sad I can’t contribute. Greg give me a lift in your tracker
  12. Itching to Kayak north alum creek and a few other spots. Timing with weather, friends and family duties hasn’t happened yet.
  13. Bring those bad decisions my way when I sell.
  14. I had a quote done by 1 Day Flooring and was really happy with the number and quality of their work. I didn't pull the trigger as we were on the fence about moving. Greg, their work is significantly cheaper on new concrete. I would skip the work and have them do it. I'll be having the new pad done by them.
  15. Popcorning intensifies.
  16. Crackhawk can catch this smoke with your daughter watching.
  17. I love a good conspirathy
  18. Damn I think there's a race that day. I'm happy your hiatus is going to be short and the new opportunity seems better than the last.
  19. Owned by manbear pig. Nice work Tim.
  20. I use them and have never had much issue? I typically only do a couple of turns on them and disconnect the endlinks and let the arms come down.
  21. Two gay guys walk into a bar. The first gay guy says "I'm gonna blow my load all over you". The second one says "Ya, well I can blow mine underwater, faster". Who fucking cares.
