After being a member of the board for years, I finally decided that my dd was on her last leg and it was time to pick up another one. So I found this little gem on craigslist...
   I just took some pics of the full stable, I just need them to load up to photobucket. ~bloodMoney Oh I forgot to mention, Abby's a little bit broke... Click linky

So I decided to be spontaneous and pick up a set of wheels so that I could show something off at the next meet.
 They're sick right? Well, they won't be on the car.... turns out, the guy swore up and down that they were 5x100/114.3 but they're definitely 5x114.3/120 So now I'm trying to get rid of these things just so that I can get my money back.... After I failed hard at putting those rims on, I checked my oil and added 1/2 quart. I filled up this afternoon and checked it again.... It didn't read on the stick  Needless to say that i just got back in from the garage.... I replaced the dizzy O-ring b/c I could see it dripping off the distributor after I shut the car off and opened the hood. While trying to pull the old o-ring off, it broke in half (as soon as I got the screwdriver under it) and the new one went on without incident. I'm going to see driving on it for a day to see if my level stays the same, otherwise I've got a new VC gasket kit with plug rings. I guess we'll see right? -------------------- ~bloodMoney
