As a homeowner with a busted up cement driveway I was thinking ‘Ohhh, look and how nice and new that driveway looks’ and then I started to laugh at how every shot had a small oil spot on it. Look’s a lot like my pole barn floor. As far as projects go: You got this.

I wish I could say the one in the picture is mine... Mine is still a project. I’ll have to do a post on it one of these days. Currently tearing it down to get ready for body work.

These are all things I went through on the broken bolt I had on the drivers side head of my ‘66 Coronet:

1. Left hand drill bit, no worky in extracting but hole.
2. Use extractor... break the shit out of it. :(
3. Sweat at it a lot.
4. Use a Dremel for 30 minutes
5. End up getting impatient thinking “I can probably get at…

I live in Michigan, therefore I have all of these things on my toolbox and not a single job goes by without using one or a combination of them. I didn’t realize until a couple years ago that people outside of the rust belt actually get to work on cars with a confident mindset that they can get all bolts off easy…

You had me at ‘light nurple’.

Yes. I always wanted one of these for my desk at work.

Take off all the Zombie stuff and I like it... I’m a little embarrassed now.

I thought about this just this morning as I pumped gas at a station I don’t normally visit at the only available pump... the one furthest from the attendant. This article did not help my skimmer-anxiety.

Lies.

Don’t get me wrong, I’d probably never pay the price they ask for them new but that’s not to say I don’t “want” one of these. Also, I drive a Saab so dumb quirky engineering worries me little.

Really? Never? I mean, I’m no fanboy but...

The rack on the top of his truck is for all the fucks he gives... it is currently empty.

I was in band in high school... (queue the nerd jokes) and after every parade they sent 150 of us nerdy 16 year olds back to our cars to go home. We would spend the next 30 minutes driving around town blasting our instruments out the window as loud as possible to scare the shit out of people on the sidewalk. We were…

Mine has the 6 speed auto in it... :( I sold my Focus ST because I got sick of payments and I was looking for something I could haul two dogs in (trying to keep them out of my wife’s new car) and it fit the bill. I do really like the car but wish it had the stick. It’s been 6 months and I still drive with my hand on…

For real, how was he possibly going that fast in such a straight line?

I also love the car, the quirks just come along with it. 2006 SC, and I could do without the turn signal ticks. Whats up with those? I don’t need those. Crazy Swedes.

Everything I’ve run in to is the standard quirky things. Coil packs, then when changing those the brittle vacuum lines, replacing those, a brittle vacuum breaker, then the battery that sits right next to the turbo, then the coolant lines that rub on each other and both went bad 2 weeks apart from each other. I do need…

Tyres are overrated mate.

Lies. It’s the perfect wrench for rounding off bolts. (Yes I know this is an old comment, dwi)

KIND OF SHITTY 2.8 TURBO!?! I DRIVE A 9-3 WAGON WITH A 2.8 TURBO HOW DARE YOU... wait, yeah, it’s kinda shitty. It runs great when it runs great but my god all the quirky bullshit problems I’ve had in only 8,000 miles is ridiculous.
