and I hate to say it but Ill bet that even turns out to be an optimistic estimate....Sorry dude :cry

 

:seeya Look at the bright side your not working on it! :jester

 

Long,long,long, long,long, road trip on Tuesday!!!!! :) :) :) :) :)

 

Could be worse....could be Thursday!

 

should of done it yourself..it took me all of 10 hours to remove and replace the heads

 

Memo to self: Come home from College every Friday night. :seeya
Drive Corvette Saturday and Sunday till weather gets bad. :)
Go back to College Sunday night. :U
Monday to Friday think about driving the Corvette. :cry
Repeat, repeat, repeat, and on and on. :cheers: :cheers:

 

College is 6 hours away. So that is out. And i can't have a car on campus first year anyway. :mad

Will

PS
On the brighter side i won't have to seel uintil at least next summer. :cool:

 

Thats such a stupid rule.

 

A car up there is usless anyway. Specially the vette. Pootsdam NY is almost in canada (way upstate NY off of 87). So i would barely get to drive her. O well she becomes a garage queen till i return. My dad and mom will surely drive it to work ocassionaly. Damn i miss my car

 

If you need any volunteers to drive your Vette to keep it in good operating shape while you're away, let us know. Afterall, what are friends for. :D

 

How about letting me drive one of you vettes every time mine breaks? :D

 

:smash: :eek: :smash:

 

I took my Z in for the tree damage repair last weekend, hoping 2 weeks would be enough to finish in time for Carlisle....well....I stopped by Friday and all they'd done was just sand that hood spot down. :( I am seriously doubting it'll be done, although my writer is tellng me Thursday....:nonod: I can sympathize at least somewhat! ;)

 

Jen,

My car's been at a tuner since Jul 9 getting a full top end and rear end upgrades. They keep guessing the completion date in incrememts of weeks. Now, they're saying Tuesday. Still trying to make it to Carlisle this year, but don't want to go without a Vette. Atleast you still have the yellow car if you so choose.

Fingers crossed!

Ron

 

Well the general rule of thumb for a tuner is add 3 months to what they tell you. If it makes you feel any better a buddy of mine is having his 68 Camero modified, and it's only 1.5 years behind shcedule. I think the second rule of thumb is to not plan anything around the return, as tuners will inevitabley find this out, and make your car delivery even later. Lets hope Tuesday is accurate.

 

that sucks, sorry dude :cry
