Post The Ill Fated Rebuild Chapters are up

All the chapters up till now are posted on my website. I had a bunch of e-mails from you asking me to finish it because you were in suspense.

Enjoy!

Just read the entire thing, in one word wow.

You give me a goal, I will never have as much determination as you. Best of luck, sorry I didn't say it earlier...

I can't wait for chapter #8...You know, when the engine is back and beautiful and she has her new red coat...

On another note your seven chapters scare the hell out of me as I am at about chapter 1 1/2 myself...Where I have ripped the motor out and found these neat vertical lines in a couple of the cylinders.... <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[crying]" />

Thanks for your story as it is definetly an inspiration for me <img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" />

My story is not written to scare anyone, just entertain and inform. For some reason, I have horrible luck with this car. I have re-painted 10 or so cars with no problems, changed 20 or so timing belts with no problems, and rebuilt 10 or so motors with no problems. It is not forign to me... but this car.... it was cursed I tell ya.

Chapter 8 will be a good one.. as will the vids that come with it. Thanks all!

it's not that the resale value of the car should be so important, but rather the value of pleasure that is returned to you which is priceless. i wish you the best of luck, may your success be sweet!
