    I'll post a separate thread on this later today but the car is back together. We just finished it last night. It sounds great but I think I have a sensor or vacuum issue I need to resolve yet. It ran great for an hour and then started getting power surges and a weird idol. I'll find it.

    The real big news is that when I was bring it back home a simi decided he wanted to be in my lane and drove me into the guardrail. I hadn't had the car on the road for an hour. :( :( I have damage on both sides, all superficial I think but I will need a new front finder. So the car will be in the shop for another month or so but at least I get a new paint job out of it.

    I'll post more on this later with some pictures.

    Damn man that realy sucks. Those Simi think they own the road. So what did the guy driving the Simi tell you.

    He didn't, he kept driving. My parents were behind me and saw the whole thing and followed the guy but he just ignored them. They only got the plate to the trailer though and the CHP doesn't think it will do much good since they change trailers so often. We'll see. The whole thing just sucks and make me sick to think about. My poor car. :(

    oh man I dont know what I would do. I think I might have follwed him until the cops caught up with us. I dont know though that just sucks. Why dont these things happen to POS cars they all ways seem to happen to realy nice cars.
