Thanks! I hear you, I've been working on this now for 13 months in 5 days; driven at most 80 miles (just to test things I've replaced/worked on) then back up on jack stands. Currently teaching myself bodywork & paint once I get that down hopefully start really driving this thing around.

My truck I've driven around about hundred miles ever in my possession, and I've owned it for 7 years! Progress on it has been slow ever since the e30 has slept beside it...
Make lists with little things to do. It seems to help me as it gives a sense of "got something done today" rather than just "ugh, another day out in the shop."-Christian

Took a quicky little sound clip of the muffler I threw on last night.
Exhaust is 2 to 1 - 2.5" straight piping - 12" resonator + Dynomax muffler.Last edited by DIIRTY-30; 02-02-2014, 02:16 PM.
