Nope no pictures. Although there was probably about 200 cars.
It's the same cars though, and it's the same crowd. They all come there, stake out their little plots, set up the EZ-ups and their lawn chairs and sit there......for 4 hours.
The guys that cruise by me are sometimes accompanied by their wives or girl friends....They're also all the same. The perplexed significant other trying to look interested while their "beloved" attempts to explain why this car, or that car is cool. When they get to me, they both just look glazed over while I rattle on about this blah-blah, or that blah blah......They have no clue.
I kinda find it frustrating actually. Nobody has any idea just how much has been done to the car,...there is just so much going on with the thing I'd have to talk people to death to go over everything.
A guy leans out of his truck window and asks what "G" body this car started from...( A G body is a mid 80's Monte-Carlo/Buick regal) I tell him that it's a Ford, but that I did actually use the tail light angle as inspiration from pictures of a 87 Monte Carlo SS ( The truth).
I walk the lot,...doing the same thing I always do when I walk the lot.....I try to find something that I'd consider owning over the Monster....I never do. Out of 200 cars there, There are a lot of really nice cars. But you know me,.......If you can buy it,...I don't want it.
I decided to leave after about 75-90 min's in......I'm by myself there, and most of these groups stick to themselves, so there isn't a lot to talk about with the rest of them. I typically find the rarest of Muscle cars the only guys that I'll talk to,....71 426 Hemi challenger,.....69 AMC SC rambler, ...65 396ss Malibu... and there isn't that many of them around....so after a while I'm done
I start the thing, and the squeak is in full overdrive. If I give the engine any gas, it's squealing/squeaking its ass off.
I skink out the back way.
I'm pissed by this,..I cannot find out the source of the freakin noise...In my anger, I flog the thing to try and get it to shut the fck up. I hear the turbo spool, and see the water/meth activation LED light up. It's making boost now with very little provocation...I'm sayin it's every bit as fast into come into boost as the twin scroll BW piece that I used to have...at less than one half of the cost of the BW piece.
I'm happy with that thing so far.
I drive the 30 minutes back with the windows rolled up, and the A/C on...it almost gets cold in there.....But not quite. It was comfortable, but it wasn't hot out and the sun was going down...so there's still some work to do there.
When I get close to the house, I do a full on Michael Jackson, and Just Beat it. It' pulled like a muthrfckr... When I get closer to the house, I beat it again. I pull into the drive, there's no squeak. I wing the engine,..still no squeak,...Is this a slipping belt? Why did it go away after the engine ran awhile, and got hot?
I was curious to see what the oil catch can was gonna look like, I was curious to see how the Iron Maiden had held up.
It does this now......a mixture of water meth left over and engine condensation forms on the glass......But it doesn't leak now.
The freakin engine still does though..there was oil ontop of the stinkin valve cover around the front fitting (which was now loose anyway)
I checked the mason jar,......just condensation forming inside that glass jar...
I'm gonna have to remove that stinkin valve cover,...and deal with it..
I don't know what that's gonna take to make this sht stop.
