BenzDieselTuner Date registered: Dec 1899 Location: Vehicle(s): | Re: My Mega-Restoration Nightmare Adventure ok, during the game today all the trans fluid leaked out onto the parking lot, disabling the car, for the SECOND TIME, and because its the holiday weekend, i have to leave it sitting, at the bar where i was, caus theres no rental cars around (the mech tried for me), and the flatbeds already knocked off until wed. luckily, its all my uncles land and stuff surrounding it, so i am parked right in front of the main office, and was able to use the phone, alot, and then his business partner drove me home............. SSSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! anyways, i have like 27 pics, but the DSL guy didnt show today, so with dialup it'll take forever to photobucket them all, or add them to my albulm.................. i am SO frustrated...................2 weeks, no car, then 1 day (24 hours) of car, and now no more car again............ | ||
