eric is blackws6firebird and he decided to not finish my car so now it will cost me well over 500.00 to get it fixed i guess i learned if your going to have real work done to your car not to let anybody but your self or a shop do it atleast you know it will get done

why do i come to mind as a bad person? lol, just kidding. why the change in attitude on the swap?by the way, im a good guy, i painted his car for him, and i took care of the money for the time being since we havent had much time to get together since. just kinda sad that someone assumed i was the bad guy

Actualy I hate to be devils advocate but thats alot of coin right there vortec heads, painless wirering harness, labor, etc. How can you pay for all that when you owe people money????? I don't think your priorities are right.

wow, people know me on here, lol. ive been pretty sick and ive been dealing with some money issues so i havent gotten around to posting. when we rebuilt my distributor we must have missed a step or something. and my car will be back by thursday no matter what (the mechanic has it, and we told him if he didnt have it done by the 11th to give it back and wed find someone else). so anyways, im still alive, selling off some stuff so i can actually get my car back when its ready.
and by the way, i wasnt saying anything bad about eric. i actually just starting talking to him a couple weeks ago and hes a really cool guy.
George, did you lose your phone or something? ive been leaving messages for you to call me back ASAP, and youve had time to post here, so i know you're around at least for a bit of spare time. just give me a call.
And, its not like i dont need my car. If i dont have my car friday, meaning I need money, im in deep with my parents. i dont think theyll go as far as making me sell it, but i will be without a car till i come up with the money.
