It’s meth heads all the way down

Require ID and signature for all sales of used catalytic converters. No cash deals, only cheques or money transfers. If caught buying the converters against these regulations charge the buyer with theft.

In all seriousness, though, you might have been in the clear if you had shot the guy...once. But shooting him after he’s been disabled and is no longer a threat? That’s probably inviting some attention from the cops. Tying him to your bumper and dragging him to a field to die? What the fuck is wrong with you?

Wow is that depressing on every level.

The whole catalytic converter stealing thing is irritating and would be frustrating and it would be nice if the police could figure out a way to curb this by making changes to how people get paid when selling these things.

However, this guy was sleeping in his truck (why?…

Don’t forget the fake vents and plastic cladding on barely raised hatchbacks and wagons passing themselves off as crossovers that sacrifice paved road driving dynamics for minuscule improvements in off-road driving.

I come here, click on “no dice” and then look at the results. Makes me feel good, all those knowledgeable people agreeing with auto-illiterate me :P

as a toupee maker once said, it’s what’s on top that counts

As the owner of an older Miata, I have no idea why anyone would want to replace its lines with a retro fiberglass unit.  It seems well done, but the dollars are too much for the miles and the extra add-ons are the seller’s cost not the buyer’s price.  Unless someone craves a fake, diminutive Ferrari knock-off, this is…

My understanding is that the Underpants Gnomes plan to use them somewhere in Step 2...

Something to stop me from losing 10mm sockets?  Challenge accepted!

“Pathetic failure?”
“Absurd?”
What. Are. You. Talking. About.
This is a fantastic failure, that makes sense, given what you know, and there was in inciting incident (unless all the metal on the whole vehicle is about to crack and cave in, which would make sense, as it is a “Tracy”), no this failure is wonderful.
You want…

It shouldn’t be hard to find a red ZJ door in a junkyard. Most ZJs were scrapped because the owner couldn’t find a new transmission, not because of any other damage. 

Unless I’m misreading, I like how what looks like an editors note “needs period for consistency” made it into your hemming bible.

With 125k on a 4.0 and an AX-15, the thing will never die. But everything else will fall apart around that powertrain/drivetrain.

So yes, I concur.

The whole time I was reading all that useful info ( it was a lot of in depth knowledge you just dropped), I kept saying, just replace the damn door with a newer red one. The colors may be close enough to just buff to match.

Sounds like it’s time for a different colored or just door with primer like they do here in Ahia.

Cuz he’s white.

Hahaha sorry man. We have all made dumb mistakes. I just had to jab you.

Yep. If you wrench enough, you’re gonna screw up.

You’re not a real mechanic until you’ve done this at least once, and hopefully only once. It’s one of those pain memories that will have you double checking the three connections before you connect the fourth. Ask me how I know...
