your little friend scares the **** out of me
those headers make baby jesus cry.

my nickname is baby jesus by the way.

My little friend doesn't scare me as long as he stays on his web and away from me. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Those headers aren't getting changed right now unfortunately. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif When I do the WHOLE exhaust system, i'll get some performance headers on there to spruce things up.

My parents are planning on building a new house in the next couple of years, and i'm sure my dad is going to try and get one of those in the garage. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

We've never had any problems with our neighbors. We've been living in the same neighborhood for 17 years now, and there has always been some sort of broken vehicle in the driveway. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

**UPDATE**

Slowly I am doing things on the truck when I can.

Got the bed taken off so we can start cleaning up everything underneath. Pretty soon the truck will be moved to my grandparents house so I can work on it in an empty garage all to myself.

And since I had the stuff lying around, I decided to start sound deadening the truck with some second skin.

It's got a looooooooooong way to go, but i'm happy to make any sorts of progress on it.

On a sadder note, the s-10 is on it's last leg. It runs fine, but chicago weather has taken its toll on the poor truck. I discovred this nice little hole about a week ago when driving home.

Unfortunately its right above a body mount and pretty much isn't worth fixing since I don't plan on keeping this truck much longer. After MECA finals I think is when it's either gonna go to the scrap yard or get pieced out. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Oh well, we had a good run.

Bah, slap on some bondo and the s10 will be good to go for another 10 years.

Haha, too much bondo on it already. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I've had a good run with it, and basically i'm sick of sinking money into it every few months to keep it running. I need something thats more reliable, makes a more comfortable daily driver (i.e. power windows/locks, a/c, etc.) and something I can shove a big stereo in to. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
