I think it's real cool how all you guys have lent a hand when a member is in need. I only wish I was closer to you guys to help out when needed. This kind of stuff is what I boast about when I talk about the club. Kinda like when you join a church that you know is the one and want to keep investing your time into it. This club is what all clubs should be like, more or less like a family.

It went good. Everything back together. Thanks a bunch Steve, Butch Jimmy and Cory you guys did me a big favor thanks again. Only one problem, i had to just drive one to many times last night and the flipping exhaust fell off of it. May just be a hanger but my family car curse continues!!

Did it fall from the back, front or where?

by hp77skylark on July 15th 2010, 4:12 am

Back where the pipe goes over the rear end. It was to dark to see last night going out here in a bit to look.

If you can get it wired up enough to get it down here we can put a hanger on it tonight. I'm going to put the sway bar back on my Bird and tighten up the PS belt and then the garage will be free. Should not take me too long. I'll be out there after 6:30 tonight working.

by hp77skylark on July 15th 2010, 4:27 am

Cool.

by hp77skylark on July 16th 2010, 9:15 am
