honestly no. i didnt think this would happen at all. just thought of it as a dream that'll happen like 5 yrs.
but the opportunity came up. i had no motor. too expensive for a M44 motor on its own. i talked my family into this, and BAM its happening.
im still amazed it did. __________________

haha.... yeah. i have no idea how this even happened in the first place. my dad thought it was a good idea that the motor is original, not altered in any way, and has less miles than my M44 motor. plus its the whole entire car. so i can use what i need driectly from the car and sell the rest to pay him and my sis back for a personal family loan.
jamito, randy, harold, bobby, jesse, dave.... we all gotta meet up sometime. i was thinking my house or jesse's...
ill start that thread later. __________________
