Stangbum, haven't talked to you in a while. Just wondering what happened Saturday with the roof???????

STANGBUM · 07-16-2003, 07:19 AM

Pat "said" they got called out early Sat. morn and he didn't have my number

Big Daddy · 07-16-2003, 02:10 PM

Well I haven't been around cause the Snake is down at True Blue. I'm scheduled to pick it up Thursday the 24th of July. JUST in time to go to Mustang Week at the Beach. Is anyone else from WNC going to this event??

STANGBUM · 07-16-2003, 02:26 PM

Wondered where you have been! I will be leaving for Myrtle beach on the 27 of July for vacation (only time wife could get off work)

Redfire GT · 07-16-2003, 10:27 PM

Hey there BIG DADDY. Good to hear from you again. When did you take the Cobra to true blue?

Big Daddy · 07-17-2003, 11:01 AM

I took it down the 5th of July. Since it's been down there I've called every day to make sure they are progressing to make the delivery date of the 24th. After yesterday's call I'm getting a bit worried. The short block which was supposed to be done last Monday is just now being completed! They still have the heads to get back from the machine shop then they have to drop the current engine replace it with the new engine and do the rest of the mods (KB K-member, power pipe, fix A/C, check differential leak, fix switch to diff. cooler, make sure there aren't any exhaust leaks!) I hope they work fast and do a GOOD job!

I don't believe" fast" and "good" should be in the same sentence when it comes to engine work.

Dennis

STANGBUM · 07-17-2003, 02:39 PM

Way to go Dennis...... but by the picture of it on E-Bay it looks like it has wide whitewalls on that baby.

34Ford · 07-17-2003, 03:57 PM

Ugh! Almost as bad as someone putten stainless fender trim on a Mustang aint it.

Wheres that smilie that pukes.

Redfire GT · 07-17-2003, 08:40 PM

I'm kind of partial to the stainless steel fender flares and the white wall tars!! they look awesome on the red mach 1's!

Redfire GT · 07-17-2003, 08:56 PM

Dennis are you coming to the show Friday night???

34Ford · 07-17-2003, 09:04 PM

Oh my gosh, Im starten to feel ill. Ill ask Jerry to bring his Mach 1 over tomorrow for you Robert.

Anyone ever work on their lawnmower engines?
I know I learned something this week.

My 12 hp riding mower died monday, so I tore into the motor.
Getten gas, and getten spark. Dont make sense.
But Im thinking its gotta be the coil. I go to a repair shop and ask if I buy a new coil and it dont fix the motor, am I stuck with it.
Yep, cant return it. Damn Im thinking.

Long story short, I can see the plug sparking when I have it laying on the head. You would think that it would start when you put the plug back in the motor.

Well guess what. Thats NOT true. I was given a blown motor today and I robbed the coil out of it and Im back in business.

So basically one would think the darn thing would run since I could actually see the spark, but that dont mean anything. A guy on a website asked if the spark was blue or not. And you know what, the old coil actually sparked purple.

I dont know. But I betcha I remember this from now on.

Back to our regular schedule program.
