    Welp, nevermind. Apparently the shop I used a few years ago has really gone downhill. Can't recommend them.

    Buds Machine in Lakewood did my race motor in 2009. Now there is a ton of bad reviews over the past yr.

                          I'll put my 2 cents in on Bud's. I go to Bud probably twice a month for machining stuff. Most of the time its to mill a head or something simple like that. Generally I get it back same day, sometimes I just sit there and wait for it. I guess I'm some what of a "good customer". Bud goes above and beyond for good customers. Mind you this work is for my shop but, I think this where a lot his work is. I had him rebuild my head on my m20, I had it back in 2 weeks. The one thing to not do when you bring something into Bud's shop is to tell him, "No rush, get it done when you can". You wont see your shit back for like 2 months. Bud's old, he is 75, I don't blame him for being slow sometimes. Honestly they are the only place I'll take my shit to now Waterhaus is gone.

                              Progressive. I even called last night & this morning to make sure I wasn't being messed with. The agent this morning started laughing slightly, because I had her tell me a 3rd time, plain English, my deductible's & coll/comp, uninsured, body damage stuff. $72 a month

                              Apparently an 86' 325 is worth dirt shit compared to any other body style. Geico wanted like $112 for the full boat. My luck ran out though, Oregon & their stupid "we're to broke to stay open on Friday's" ODOT bullshit. So my car is insured, tags are good until 2013, but the title is only signed and dated for yesterday.

                              Don't think I can drive him since I didn't get a chance to registrar him Still trying to find out if my arse get's pulled over, are they going to tow it.

                                Just drive it and wave paperwork if you get pulled. Tell them you have it all but have to wait for them to reopen next week
