Yeah it’s the shiny base coat with a colored clear. But I painted my calipers with the same paint and they’ve been fine. I think all the aluminum parts weren’t prepped well or primered causing the issue. I’m going to get another valve cover and intake manifold and try my hand at painting them. I lik...

If you can find a set, stock magnum springs would work great with that setup. For what it’s worth, you can currently buy a programmer for that car, and there are plenty of people on Facebook that can either make a tune for you, or help you along to do it yourself. With the comp 400 cam I’d recommend...

This was duplicolor metalcast paint, and I’m not sure what he used on the intake manifold. Either way I’m going to re do everything. Gasket between the turbo and the o2 housing shit the bed this week so I’ll be replacing that tomorrow along with the crank and cam sensors if I can get one to my local...

Turns out it wasn’t the starter after all. This wire was corroded and caused the car not to start. Stole a wire from a spare harness and spliced it in and the car has been good to go. When I had this car put together by Ryan (a23danger) he painted some stuff under the hood. Nothing held up. So I’ll ...

Damn, what a shame, that car was in pretty good shape at one point. The first thing I noticed majorly was the driver's front tire being bald, probably needs an alignment and some suspension parts as well. In the land of Jerry: I was just working on my SRT yesterday. It needs a starter, got one from ...

I have a SOHC 12 valve version of that motor in my 89 caravan. It has around 250k miles on it and it’s still going. The major issues got fixed around 1994. That motor makes pretty good power and will handle quite a bit of abuse. The only difficult part I would imagine is like any FWD V6 car, very cr...

I was hoping to give you some comforting words at the photo shoot but thinking back they may have come off wrong. I knew Mario and Chris would get you taken care of, especially with Mario being a Chrysler technician. We all act a little off when we get stressed, I’m sure they weren’t too concerned. ...

Carlisle weekend was a blast! And imagine my surprise when I got to the show field and saw Dave aka Gramps there!

I guess I’ll see if multiple treatments of the natural stuff will work. Roundup has officially been linked to cancer and we have a very shallow well.

I currently own 11. The silver car in the background was Scott’s 01 RT that was very rusty and I’m parting out. And I need to kill all the weeds and grass that’s growing in my gravel driveway but my wife is vehemently against most weed killers. So I need to go buy a few gallons of vinegar and make s...

Finally got the PT back together. It officially has 3 colors on it now.

Edited together of me fixing the PT and explaining how I did it. I ramble a lot but a few of my friends found it interesting.

Christy hit a tire tread on 495 around midnight on Monday night. I hacked a radiator into the car to drive it home. Last night I vent the core support straight. I wanted to get a new front end for the car but now I guess I need to lol.

Motorsport wheels, new tires, a new windshield, and a coat of car wash wax really helped the PT in the looks department.

Lol thanks. A guy built it a few years ago and sold it off. I bought it from one of the later buyers. It’s really the best summer cruiser. Relatively comfy ride but still handles nice, power seats, 4 power windows, AC, and 24 pounds of boost when I lay into it. It would be nice to have a better ster...

04rebel: In the background is my wood paneled SRT-4 swapped LeBaron lol. It’s barely peeking out. The PT is mine that the first paragraph was about.

OD: He’s a sad old man. His comments used to slightly make me upset but now I only feel pity for him.

Honestly, Lane has taught me a lesson. I don’t want to be Like him when I am his age. He’s a perfect combination of a whiny crybaby and a hateful old man. He thinks he knows everything and isn’t open to any sort of suggestion, and easily gets upset when someone contradicts what he says even with a f...

I actually convinced Frank not to give him a permanent ban over the weekend because he insisted on calling me InbredJerry on the 2gn page. I told frank not to because between this forum and Facebook it’s all he’s got left to keep him occupied.

It’s random posting. If you don’t like it, then don’t cry about it.

So, the current cost of the $200 PT cruiser is $876. This list includes: Purchase: $200 Tags/Title: $188 Front Brakes DIY: $238 Inspection/Rear Brakes/4 new Tires at Blair’s shop (BoneYard Racing): $250 and the stock wheels. In this picture you can just barely catch a glance of my SRT-4 station wago...

Yeah this was pretty annoying to do but luckily it’s very short so when I go to sleeve the well it won’t be too bad. It rained last night and when I went to make coffee this morning I didn’t think about it and ran the faucet. Muddy looking water came out of it. Ended up using bottled water to make m...

To give them some credit, they had originally built a cinderblock room and then covered it. But all the old concrete had collapsed. It was not a fun project by far.

Nope, didn’t find anything cool at all. And the liner to the well is collapsing so I’m going to attempt to repair it myself with a sleeve and a “packer”.

Let me know if you guys can see this post. It’s from my well adventure.

Also I did some research, I’m going to attempt to seal and re line my well myself.

Haha, wish I could say it was just one day but it took me 2 days of work to get to the paint bucket that was over the old well cap. I started this on Friday and finally had running water Sunday. The people that owned the house before us were done DIYers and had some interesting solutions for problem...

I just did some thinking, it’s not PEX I have but polybutylene which isn’t supposed to be installed in houses anymore. Oops. There’s PB going from my well pump in my cellar to the well cover itself. Ugh. Even more reason to get it changed out.

If I set it to private, you might need to have an account and be my friend on there. I’m just going to abandon the app. Lol, WELL luckily it was only 24 feet. And if I still have it come winter I’m going to re bury it so it doesn’t freeze. We had a pipe freeze and then burst in my bathroom back in F...

I hope y’all had a better Memorial Day weekend than I did. I had to take up my deck, rent a jackhammer, dig about 2 feet of dirt out to get the my old well cap. Thankfully the well was only 24 feet deep even though we were told it was 85 feet deep. This is basically a stop-gap until I can spend $340...

Bought a PT with 131k miles on it for $200 3 weeks ago we’ve put 3k miles on it so far and I put $138 in brakes on it last night. I used to tag on these but it’s actually kind of nice to drive.

Happy Zombie Jesus Day!

Are there any FCA products that you like? As of right now it’s very few. I like the minivans, I like the rams, I like the charger/challengers, but that’s about it. I want a nicer daily for work but it will certainly not be a FCA product. They don’t make anything to suit my needs. Christy and I have...
