I thought I was going to drive the alfa to work today, until I hit a dip in the road that was at least half a foot deep doing 40 mph. Tore the sway bar mounts apart, dented the lower valance all to shit and the edges of the rocker panels.

So I’ve been a painter’s assistant for about a month now and our shop ran out of some yellow paint tint in the middle of a bumper job for a mustang, our sister shop has some but its over an hour away with traffic, it’s 3:50 PM and this bumper needs to be painted TODAY and everyone still wants to leave at 5. I hop in…

So I was driving to work this morning and I was going straight though an intersection, WITH A GREEN LIGHT AND THEN RIGHT WHEN I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION ANOTHER CAR TURNS LEFT AND ALMOST RUNS RIGHT INTO ME. LIKE WHAT. YOU HAD A RED LIGHT

my friend “inherited” his dad’s old crabbing boat so it wants to get it running and fix it up

Trunk space on the other hand,

that’s not an overly worrying amount of metal but there is a noticeable tick once you get moving so eh, at least i get to finally do what i wanted to do to the engine but didn’t have the resources for the first time I took it apart.

not from combustion noises though

i forgot ford made these explorer based trucks

welding up corner marker lights is one of the very few times where fixing holes in your car is illegal.

Almost 4 years later and it still leaks oil like a colander :D
