OK I figured since everyone was confusing my updates with bubbas Id give satch her own OFFICIAL PROGRESS THREAD!!!!
ooooooo ahhhhhhhh
anyway
heres the back story to what happened to Satch.
Back in November I had a blow out on a saturday. Well I cant ride on a donut and didn't have a spare so I went to the closest and only place by me open on a saturday......... PepBoys.
So I'm outside watching them lift the car up then I hear a creaking sound....... I'm on the phone with my girlfriend and said to her if they drop my car Im gonna kill them. Now literally no sooner then I finish saying that it happens THE JACKOFF DROPPED MY CAR OFF THE LIFT!!!! So I walk inside to go and speak with the manager by the time I make it in him and the idiot that dropped it are taking a broom handle screw driver and hammer to the side of my car. After they beat on it a few times they both come in and try to act like nothing happened and that I was making things up and it never even came off the ground yet and that the damage was already there when i gave them the car.
So after that thrilling event I made a few phone calls and got the manager and the kid lifting it fired, a set of free tires, and some money for damages. I drove the car around for a week or so then started to notice motor issues and a scraping sound when i turned. I got the car in the air and take off the wheel and notice MY DAMN ECU IS DANGLING AND ALL BASHED UP!!! So I reattach the damn thing and the car lasts for about another 3 days then it just died.
Went through a few months of trying to track down my problem nothing I tried worked so I got PJ over to do some HPTuner work to see how everything was doing. Came to find the ecu was running at a 4:1 afr (if someone can explain that to me please do). So PJ got the beast up and running and then the next issue pops up a trans leak and a burned up cat.
i let the car sit for a few months contemplating selling it then bubba started yelling and screaming to get it back up and after working on his car a bit I got the j-body bug again.
So that brings us to where it is today in pieces and slowly being rebuilt some changes are in the works and a few extras when time/money permit.
Oh and by the way I am taking donations
