Title: Not gonna make it...
Post by: Ifixyawata on May 16, 2007, 11:08:01 PM
After reviewing my finances it looks like I'm not going to be able to get my car back together before the Jam this year.  I still need the rack & pump, all the brakes, tie rod ends, struts, shocks and to run new brake lines.  I might still show up a while to see folks, but my car will be a no-show. 

If I could ever get a reasonable amount of money for the car & the parts I'd probably sell it all because at this point in my life I have no room for a 23 year old car that needs so much work. :disappoin

Just to give you an idea of what my finances are looking like, my next paycheck is about $549.  After I pay my bills, I'll have $25.  That's not enough for gas in my car for 2 weeks.

Mine will only show if it will stop getting such poor mileage, and my sending unit starts working. I need tires, brakes, and bushings.

I dunno, thinking about it again, it might be too soon to make that call.  CJ is still 2+ months away.  I really don't want a last-minute wrap up like last year, though.

As I remember, he has all teh EFI shiznit he needs. Mostly suspention stuff. Can live with out steering stuff IMO but springs and suspention look to be the big speed bumps

If you need springs, I have a set of rear springs from an '88 TC. If you want them let me know.

Brian - I can donate a Dash-Mat that has "Juggalo" (http://"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juggalo") (long story...)embroidered on it, if you think it will help your car make it to The Jam. :hick:
