That's literally impossible...
There's no such thing as an altruistic act!

hahah...
anyway, I don't wish...that would mean an infant was driving that beast of a car and I think we both agree that that wouldn't be super safe. I do still think she'll be a better driver than you in 15 years though.

She DROVE DA FK outta it since she did Mary Kay and now has the MK Chevy Malidu to abuse...lol. Which leaves me 2 cars till its handed down.

J, I didn't realize both were over the 100k mark. You obviously wouldn't know it by looking at them.

He sent me the first progress pic of the block and heads on a stand ready to drop in. The next day (yesterday), he sent me the pic seen above in the car with the intake system and everything connected. Still some work to do such as a/c, fluids, MAF sensor etc... I happen to have the MAF sensor in my possession so he wasn't able to start it up. My fault. Since, he closed shop to return to his FT job as a Fireman. Now I won't hear or see him till next week when he returns to the shop. More waiting, but its done and getting there now toward the end of completion.
