Lol. That is some expensive tint

I got work tomorrow 9-6 but Sunday I am free. Let me know if you need another old man around haha. How did the door come out? It was wet when I left. Hopefully the top part was pretty much done.

Talk all you want Josh. I never cut corners. This is something that if you build more than one rotary in your life, you'll find out. I have learned alot, and I am still learning. Anyone who thinks they know it all, is a dumbass........

never claimed to know it all. and i never said you cut corners. purely said you hadnt finished the irons. but dont tell me i dont know what im talking about when my 1 engine has outlasted 3 of yours now, and i drive mine hard every single day, not just on every other weekend. its a simple case of facts. fact is mine hasnt failed. I dont get in a hurry like you do and throw iffy parts into my engines just so i can get it on the road quicker. it only costs more in the long run. now then im done with this so leave it alone.

No Josh. You don't know what your talking about. I have only had one engine break on me that I have built. So get your facts straight. If you want to start questioning my skills and craftsmenship, your crossing the line. So keep your opinions to yourself, and we'll all get along just fine.

hey guys it's been a while since I've been on here. I'm looking at buying two 7's next week maybe an 86 gtu I think( no power windows, but has a pwr sr, no rear containers) and and 88 tII with no motor at all. That's kinda why I'm back on. I'm trying to see if I can find a TII motor, turbo and all. It still has the tranny and everything but no motor. If you don't remember me Last march when I came up from columbia sc while we were on our drive I blew a coolant line. Later guys thanx for any input you give me. This will be my turbo 7 matter of fact my first turbo car period. So I have no clue what's going on with it.

Hey Josh if you could give me a one up on the "trader score" that would be nice. Some guy buying my old rotor n housing was questioning my reputation.

I will be there after the batting cage. I will be taking pictures. Where exactly is it? Is it @ the carrowinds parking lot? The gauges are Autometer Tach 3 3/4" brand new in the box,oil psi 2" mechanical. Also some MSD BOXES 6 AL brand new never used.Hit me up if any one is interested. A big thanks to Rob for being a true gentleman and sharing some rotary knowledge. I hope to have the car on the road by the end of the year with a 12A streetport.

Your welcome sir. Anthony, your right about the piggies. On the way to and from Knoxville, we saw more cops than I can ever remember. I kept my speed between 5mph of the limit most of the time. There was a nice little run to the border we got on video
