Hey I was looking to see if there was someone in the Bay Area who could help me with pulling the engine out of my FB. I wouldn't be able to pay you much but would also provide beer/soda and some nice meals from my girlfriend.

Looking to possibly do it some weekend when the weather is fair.

If anyone is interested give a reply.

 

Sure, I can but you have to pick me up...Nah, tow that POS to me instead. mucho easier.

 

Shi-, will you put the engine in the other car as well though? =P

 

Tow it to me without radiator, oil. Within 1/2 hour, you will be on your way back to Frisco

 

The car is complete for the most part, just kind of falling apart at the seams. The body, paint, interior, clutch cylinders, suspension, and possibly tranny are quite shot which is why I want to put the engine into a GSL instead of investing x benjamins to get it running well and then making it nice and pretty again.

Without radiator, oil, what now?

 

Where in the bay area? I'm pretty lazy.. but might be willing to help.

Do you have an engine hoist/lift?

 

No only have basic tools, no cherry picker atm...

 

Didn't somebody in another thread say you were a woman? One cookin' and the other wrenching on a car - comeon guys help um out!

Hehe

 

don't listen to wacky, he's full of ****.

 

I should tow it down there anyway, strip the vins off and leave it on his porch. =P

 

you'd still be doing him a favor.

 

I don't know, you haven't seen my FB have you?

Nader has but that was in the forgiving moonlight.

 

 

Is it really true that you're a woman...

Hehe

 

I tend to claim I am a woman in rampant leghumping situations. Like the Lounge, and when I play Counter-Strike:Source and a girl is on the server.

 

ha...you's a hoe!

 

I hate everyone.

 

But where in the bay area?

 

East Bay, Fremont.

 

Tell ya what Hopkins, I can help you. I have all the tools, compressor, cherry picker, fylwheel removal tool, and a truck to carry it all in. I will be happy to help you one day, in trade for your help one day. I will be putting in my engine soon, and may need some help then. Fill my bellky with beer and food, and you are good! I live in Dublin, not to far from ya. Let me know.
Chris

 

BTW, I used to live in Fremont. Went to Chadbourne, Hopkins, and Mission San Jose,, (kinda).........................

 

Awesome and thank you very much for this offer! (unless you're pulling a wackyracer on me)

Sadly as can be easily told, my mechanical skills are still in their abortive pre-infancy but as long as I at least could be in some way helpful to you I will gladly take you up on this offer. I'll shoot you a PM so we can co-ordinate.

 

lol

you want an instant cherry picker. find 2 tall dudes OR short dudes standing on milkcrates, 2x4 woods and chain/rope

 

If I am not breaking crap on my own car this weekend I might be able to help out.. though ive never pulled a 12A/FB only a couple FC and FD engines. Can't be any harder other then more stuck bolts and lots more swearing?

In any case if you don't have things taken care of already feel free to PM me and I will try and be around this weekend to help out....

Get Nader to pull the damn engine, all he needs is his dinner hat.

 

Hmm.... do I smell a mini-meet cooking sometime in the future? ^^
