  1. I'll try putfile then streetfire in the mornin'. Will post the link when I have it. It's a pretty cool video.
  2. I can upload it to some free hosting site. Where should I upload it?
  3. I'm sorry, but I needed to post here. I'm also a Mat (but, with one "t"). But seriously, do you know the difference of a inline 6 and a V-6? EDIT: You will want to remove the engine and pretty much everything else (strip it completely) when you media blast the car. You do NOT want that stuff to find its way into the engine or any drivetrain components and cause damage.
  4. Thanks guys, it means a lot from you. Uncrossed my nuts, feels much beter, and my voice has went down a few notes
  5. Well, just got back. Three hours of sitting on your butt is very hard to do. I feel like I did pretty good though. I ran out of time and there were two questions that I couldn't find an answer to, so being mulitple choice, I have a 25% chance of getting those right. I had a dream the other night with a vision of the test score and it was 72%. Not the best, but still a passing grade. We will see if I'm right in 14 days or less. UDC is Uniform Dwelling Code. UBC is Uniform Building Code. To be honest with you, I don't know the difference. I never looked at the UBC books. Yeah, my knees are shot, my wrists crack and my neck and back hurt. Sometimes I sleep on the hard floor, because it actually feels good. I can't wait to get a different job. People don't understand what I do all day. Sometimes it will be slow and give me some time to putz around on the computer or any of my other hobbies and sometimes you are working yourself so hard you turn into a machine. You just keep going and going and yelling at yourself to not quit or look like a baby. Those days I won't miss. It will suck going from working for yourself to having a boss, but I can eventually become independent and be my own boss again. That will be years down the road, so that's something to look forward to. I got my fingers crossed, my toes crosses, my legs crossed, my arms crossed, my nuts crossed and my eyse crsosed. I hope it's a passing grade.
  6. I'm taking my UDC Inspectors exam at 12 noon central time. I'm nervous as all heck. I need to pass this. It will make for a better life for me. I've been in construction since I was a little kid (been about 21-22 years, family business) and it's just flat out boring now. I've done it all and it just becomes so repetitious. Besides, my body is already showing me signs that I should choose a different occupation. My Grandpa was a Building Inspector for the city of Brookfield, WI and my aunt Cindy is a Building Inspector in Mukwonago, WI. After talking with them, I know I will love this job. I just need to pass this freakin' test! Wish me luck!
  7. I just got the 2006 Winter Edition. They are now called Black Dragon Automotive.
  8. Maybe he seriously doesn't know about the Fast and Furious movies?
  9. This is awsome! Great video. Makes me smile Click here
  10. Ernie, if you drop me a PM with your e-mail address, I'll send you a video of a BMW V-12 engine running with a nickle standing on end, then stopping, then starting and running again with the nickle still standing on end. They had to block off the fan to keep from blowing the coin over, but it's pretty cool nonetheless.
  11. John's been busted! Ha ha! Okay, that aside, 140 lb. Rott? Named Bear? Holy crap! That is a large dog with an intimidating name. I like big dogs (had a couple German Shepherds), but 100 lbs is my cap (females). Anything bigger and it's like having another kid living with you (food, maintenance).
  12. He said that he's painting it the same color as before.
  13. I've offered my number here in the forums a few times in the past and never got unwanted calls. *hopes one of you guys don't call me at 3 in the morning trying to be funny*
  14. It was (I think) the Ford Five Nine concept. I saw it in person up in Oshkosh, WI and it looked really cool. I tried to find a picture to post, but to no avail.
  15. I just did this to a buddies car on Tuesday. Full suspension change to Tokico and polyurethane bushings. There is some slack in the springs, don't worry about it. This will only be a problem if you decide to get your Z airborn. Just make sure you have the springs seated in the spring hat when you sit the car back on the ground. The full Energy Suspension kit isn't that bad. I've done a half dozen of them now. A press makes installing the Energy Suspension kit an easy affair. Although, using the MAPPS torch to burn out the bushings is quite fun. You do know the pin that holds the spindle pin in is tapered, right? If you have any questions, give me a jingle on my cell, 414-975-7168. I was up in your area last weekend. I could have stopped by to give ya a hand for a bit.
  16. That car looks pretty bad. However, there is one around here with that very same kit that looks pretty cool. Take that large grill off, paint all the chrome a dull grey, bag it, throw on some Centerline Smoothies, tint the windows dark, and paint the whole car flat black. It looks almost sinister.
  17. But, the 'Vette is tastefull and more unique than that craptacullar Mustang.
  18. If I had the money... Click here
  19. Thought you guys might like this hybrid V8 Carolla
  20. I can stop laughing at the Top Gun music playing! That was just crazy nuts. There had to be 5 or 6 dozen fish in thier boat! Imagine taking one of them to your head. Ouch. Cool video
  21. I was able to see some of the vehicles that ran when they were in Wisconsin. I still can't believe I saw six BMW M6's in one spot. Check out the videos. The burnout video is pretty cool, everybody likes a good burnouot video! The Suburu that was in that video was staying at my hotel and it seriously has some balls . The Jeep takes the cake though. I haven't checked out all of the videos, so if someone finds the red 280Z please let us know which video it's in! One Lap of America videos
  22. What the heck would you use that for?
  23. Are you welding in a panel, or an entire roof off a donor?
