What was the "impossible" that they did? Why are so many people wet on lucky 7? Not sure if this is thread worthy, but that's cool that you got your car running. Everyone start making threads when they get their cars running.

I think it is new thread worthy. Only because many of us were "**** Jaime when are you gonna get that damn thing on the road?" lol

so they got it running, i've seen people wire up fuel pumps backwards that took less than 5 minutes to fix, that still doesn't answer the question...

just curious what this huge issue was that Jaime couldn't find so we can rag on him for it!

if he would spend less time finding the tighest pants he could fit into it would have been running a long time ago.

i heard he likes them second hand also, from the little boys section at the goodwill. he has to smell them first.

hi Jaime!

Thumbs up

When you get so deep in these extended projects you can't see the forest for the trees. Glad someone found the rotten tree.

Can happen to the best of us; after six months of meticulous engine restoration I spent two days trying to start the motor with the L1/T1 plug wires on the rear rotor's plugs.

It's why this smiley exists:
