i'll be in the SF Bay area on wednesday evening/thursday morning
in case anyone wants me to pick up a motor for rebuilding to save the headache and cost of shipping. my number is 702-277-9846, call before tomorrow evening if you want me to swing by. can probably go a few hundred miles from there but not much more.

nope, definitely not free considering fuel for one trip is $320. but when the shops in the bay area start at $5k and go up from there for a rotary rebuild it's not too difficult to steal some business even with towing expenses. although it was a bit short notice but i'll be back a few times in the next few months.
i did set a new personal record though, 1200 miles in 22 hours(not like the old beater ford could do any more than that..). i need to get the REPU done and set up to tow, at least the heater works in it.
i did spot 2 FBs in San Bruno while getting gas 2mins apart from each other, one had a chick driving who was getting gas. but then it must have been a guy with long hair because it still had oil in it and it was moving under its own power! j/k whoever you were.

then he could stay up for 30 hours at a time with no sleep and cans of monster energy all over the floor.
it's a gangsta life being a rotary mechanic, not for the faint of heart!
PSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHBOOOM! dammit, there went another iron..
this month alone i have driven 1200 miles straight in one day over 22 hours to pick up a car and re-rebuilt an engine(somehow a bolt made it into the motor, don't look at me, there was multiple hands in the install) on a patio on a cold drizzly wet day after driving 300 miles with basic hand tools and half a grenaded motor, helped install it and get it running idling and adjusted before driving 300 miles back home. i'm sure something else will come up in the day or 2 before the month ends. lets not forget i almost died on the way to get here in the first place, i think i still have a **** stain in my drawers from the 15,000lbs pushing my *** down the mountain with no brakes.
