is this correct?

11 FB's = 11 12a's
2 SA's = 3 12a's
3 FC's = 1.5 12a's
1 RX2 = 2 12a's
5 boingers = 0 12a's


Total: 17.5 12a's!!

Naw it was over produced, ended up on the cutting room floor.

Thanks Kevin, that looks about right, Crit and Holly will confirm using their computer-like brains.

Chris, Ray won't understand what your talking about unless you refer to the carb as del Horto.

I wish you still had that SA Greg!

The Dart looks great, I remember days in my slant 6. If you can't find a buyer, my Man Barry will give you $4000 for it towards the purchase of your new RX-8, with discounts you should be able to drive a new one home from the lot for under 20 grand.

Michael I wish you lived closer so you could make some of these meets, they just keep getting better. Why don't you cruise over for Crit's Lake House event this weekend?

The headlight lifters are actually the original 24 year old parts, I told you guys the Silver One is a Garage Queen.

Simple: everyone in the country who is working donates some cash and pays you for your car! Then we crush it and you use the cash to buy yourself a more fuel efficient car.

Barry only wants to buy post-'84 cars, so you'll have to sell it the old-fashioned way.

Barry sounds like a figgin socialist.

People who work for a living, or still have jobs that is, do not "chip in" but rather are forced at the point of a government gun, to pay taxes. The leaders of the dumb masses then go out and buy the votes from those who would not ordinarily be able to afford a new car, by giving them the tax payers money.


It's really quite simple comrade.

don't know if i'd want to do that. my luck they'd put me in jail for stealing. after 30 minutes of the guy leaving i called to get them to turn the modem back on. it would be nice tho to be friends with a local charter employee.

yeah ray, i too wished i lived closer. i'll probably have to miss the lake meet for the same reason i missed out on zf. it wont be too much longer before i'm able to make meets more often.

Greg,

You got the window! Did you have to redo the frame or were we just doing it wrong the time before? I promise I'm going to help you guys back out soon, I just need to get everything situated first.

I went to court today on that exhaust ticket- the courtroom was like a double wide without a/c... it blew. I sat in there for almost 3 hours waiting, and I asked to dismiss the charge given my college/ financial situation and past ticket, and they did and all I had to pay was a $25 court fee. Good enough for me Anyways, the meet was good. I enjoyed meeting some new people and showing off the FB. Hopefully I'll have time this month to get it in better shape!

Kevin did a good job at the count. I honestly lost count.

Ray you missed some parking lot repairs. Andy had to a fuel leak and Andrea had some extra line on his car, so Andrew cut a piece out of his line and donated it to Andy. The SA's took care of each other. Petty Sweet, noticed and repaired in no time.

I love you rotorheads.
Holly
