I can't believe I'm excited at the prospect of it being in the mid 50's next weekend. That's actually still cold, but it will seem like a heat wave if it materializes.

Oh Hullow

But at least I'm not in NJ with the rest of my family buried in snow week after week

Finally got the insurance all taken care of. Need to get the parts order in now but going to try two shops and see which gives me the best deal since its a large order. Then going to send it to the shop to get the structural stuff taken care of at least. Not going to get the cosmetic body work done yet since I am thinking its MT swap and time to increase supercharger boost at this point.
This weekend while home I am going to prep the car for going to the body shop by getting the wheels off and putting the factory wheels back on.
Most likely its going to be a long process since I am going to try and do the other things at the same time. My hope is to get it done by beginning of May for a show or worst case to have it done for Import Alliance 2011 in July.

hHpefully it will but if I don't end up with time to get calls into the parts places soon nothing is going to get here anytime soon which sucks. Been so busy as of late with the new job and still trying to get everything settled down here.
Makes it even harder that the car and shops I am going to use are in PA and I am in NC.

hello all! Just wanted to say hey to fellow charlotteans!
When the hell is 485 going to be complete??!! When I arrived in 97, I heard they would be done by 2005.....
I used the light rail a total of 1 x.....it was cool.
When are the panthers going to win the superbowl? did we just let go of a good coach or are we finally heading in a better direction?
why is everyone talking about the weather?
We need a Frye's Electronics here in town!
I have been to the very top of the Bank of America Building...and got pics to prove it.
Anyways...things that may Charlotteeans go "hhhmmmmmm??" or WTF is he smoking?
I recently got the JBL ms-8 and cant wait to get it installed....anyone know a good shop?

SeeVuPlay, 485 can lick my nuts. I hate that damn road. The Panthers are, nevermind. We are talking about the weather because it's been wayyyy too cold recently. Wtf is Frye's? I want pictures from the top of the BofA building! Prove it!

Frye's is like a Best Buy electronics store...but just think if you crossed a Sam's Wholesale club with a Circuit City, that is what Frye's is....sorry to disapppoint you as I know you probably thought it was food!
Pics to come as they are at home on my laptop (which is where I do my heavy photoshopping too!)
Also, where is the C&C in charlotte? I have a keurig at my house! and a central vac in the garage!
National signing day...and Clemson is lookin good so far!

485 is awesome...in west Charlotte. It's wide and wide open.
The train...it has it's uses.
The Panthers suck. Hurney needed to go with Fox.
The weather's cold, and it sucks beyond belief.
Frye's...meh, one more big box to go out a few years after it opens.
Been to the top of 1 Wells Fargo or whatever they call that building now. No pics, too busy working.
C&C is at Northlake mall the first Saturday of every month, weather permitting. 8:00-11:00 am. JB will update the C&C thread soon, I'm sure. Even if he doesn't, that's when it is.
Clemson, LOL.

Id LOVE to have a Fryes here, or even a Micro Center.
I have been to the very top of the Bank of America Building...and got pics to prove it.
My father used to work there. I dont remember the floor but it was in the 50s. I remember standing right up against the glass in his office looking down. Scary as shit.

Im interested in the C$C...what do we do there besides drink coffee? will someone wash my car?
What do you do chilldog? I might be able to get some leads for you (even though you are not a clemson fan
) My gf also works with the bankofamerica, and even though she doesnt do the hiring, she does get resumes to the right folks! She actually got 2 friends in with the bank. Civic, yes a microcenter would be even better....Im just tiring of Best Buy. come to think about it, I wear headphones whenever I go inthere just to ignore all those pesty best buy people (no offense Best Buy people).

Financial analyst. Used to work for Carolinas Healthcare System. Position was eliminated Monday. I can be a Clemson fan if it helps. I do occasionally listen to their football games as they are broadcast on my favorite radio station (93.3 The Planet).
And I hear you on BB...I do most of my shopping online.

Facilities Coordinator at one of the Big 4 here in CLT. Our group is not hiring, but I'll ask around to see if there is any hiring going on. I know there are a bunch of college interns here (tis the season), but not sure about career opps. Today is only my 3rd day, so I only come on during breaks . I'll keep my ear to the ground to see if I hear of anything...
