[doobiess]

Well last week my deck went now its in getting repaired and im about to go on a big road trip..

Last week had a hell of a time trying to repace my serp belt and finally did on thursday after 3 days of trying.

Now today i got home from getting groceries.. and renting a movie.. i accidently left my movie in the car i go out and there is antifreeze leaking out all under my car... open the hood on the driver side of the radiatior its all split about a 4 inch split and coolant is gushing out .... well now I need a new radiatior... i think this is a sign im not suposed to go on my trip or at least haven any money to do so...

Sorry just gotta rant on

Have your car towed to the meet. Then let people work on it as an exhibit of sorts. You can even charge people for the tutorial of replacing a radiater.

You could also try hitting up some of the sponsers for a deal on the radiater. Fat chance I know but you may get a good deal if they want to show off a brand new install complete with testimonials from the happy owner.

lol well im sure the drive from Victoria to NY would be a rather expensive tow bill roughly 3000 miles 1 way... and as for the rad ... well my dad works at a local parts store so i get all parts at roughly 75% off :) thats why i kinda replace parts that really isnt in need of changing yet

nope i get em brand new.. and the price i get my stuff for is the price of used...

Well i just removed the rad. now and it looks original too i would say half the fins are all bent smashed or so on.. the portion where the fan sits in front.. and that lower rad hose... i hate those spring loaded clamps one thing is for sure im puttion on a screw type... now i just wait until tomarrow to buy the part..

Also i need to borrow a car for a bit today so i might get my dad's 5.0L stang :)
