    So I got a V12 BMW. Fools errand or Awesome

    Well, nothing exciting to report really. Mostly waiting on some parts. Most of them should be here today. I installed a new stereo, changed the oil and filter. I also hit up a junkyard today and found most of the missing tool kit for it, got some trim pieces, and a front turn signal light.

    I'll get more pictures when it drives under its own power. It sucks trying to push it around. And I have a 15 degree slopped driveway. It sucks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    No Taylorsville. Some poor kid didn't know what he had or the money to maintain it to keep it running. Spark plug wires are usually $600. I got them for $307 off rockauto.com and new plugs for $1.06 each. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It was running on 6 cylinders when I got it. Half of the plug wires were broken. I just ordered new wires and plugs. I cleaned up the distributor caps and rotors. Yes that's one per side. Everything is doubled on this engine except the oil filter. I've got the engine stripped now of everything...

    So I got a V12 BMW. Fools errand or Awesome

    Slide-in camper tech?

    I have some steel sawhorses, I used to use to hold mine up. You can have them for $50. And you'll probably get a hernia trying to move them.

    That's what she said. Umm yeah. I don't think I'll be able to snap this one. 1 ton unjointed at the top. I'll figure out how to upgrade the lower ujoint to something bigger later on when I can find something better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I just got done building a new rear driveshaft. I killed the first one I built. This time I used a 2005 Ram Cummins front CV shaft as a starting point. I rebuilt it with new ujoint sat the top. And I just ordered a new one for the axle end. To fit my Range Rover flange. I also bought a JB...

    Photobucket Officially Sucks

    Because its easy to just upload my pictures from my phone to facebook. Then I just copy my links into my build threads. I quit using photo-bucket years ago. My pictures were always getting de-linked. Why waste my time fixing them all the time.
