Potential Help request

Hey fellers, was wondering if anyone could help me with the TII. Im pulling the motor soon, but i most likely need some help cracking the block open and inspecting it. I know Guanaco and Hyper4mance2k have expressed that they are willing to help when they have time to spare. I was wondering if anyone else is interested in helping me out trying to get back on the road. Iv had a dead FC for 2 years now and im starting to lose momentum. If we get multiple guys to come and help i wouldnt mind setting up a small BBQ with free beer...(yay).. at my place and just considering it a meet. ROFL.

Let me tell you WHY im asking for help to begin with. I was in a car accident in 2005 and it kinda left me not up par with my abilities as a mechanic, and it frustrates me. Most things i can do myself. But eventually i will be stuck and wont be able to proceed without help. Another reason is that because of my accident i was forced to leave the auto industry as a mechanic and go back to school to learn another trade. Leaving me jobless for 3 years. So i can only do little bits at a time. Its gone long enough that i might be ready to give up, but then it will nag me for the rest of my life that i gave up on the project car because i was frustrated. So my last resort..asking help from the local rotards.

Let me know if anyone is interested and what your schedules are like so i can work out the earliest time.

As far as compensation for your skills and time, i am sorry but at this point i am only able to offer free meals (most of which are going to be Filipino dishes aka lumpia & pancit). If your still interested in helping me get back out on the road.....MAY GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL FOR ETERNITY.

-Josh

Awesome awesome, I will plan a date maybe sunday August 2nd. Lumpia is Filipino style fried eggrolls, and Pancit is a noodle dish mixed in all sorts of yummie ingredients.

Will looks to be doing good, i dont think he got married yet..last i checked he told me he was still talking about it with his girly.
