Presenting the Cookie Monster!

My life partner and I decided that we would take a quaint adventure to a delightful place called Independence.

Why, you might ask?

There was a wonderful craigslist ad that had both of our attention!

Yes, THAT type of craigslist ad.....

It seemed all so familiar to me, driving out there on the same roads I had traveled many times before.

But no time to reminess! Our girl might be gone at any second!

So we get to our destination, and are greeted by a pimp of sorts named Bryan.

We asked him if he had a second, because thats all we needed.

And then we saw her... Her curves glistened in the light. Oh yes, she's been around the block several times.

I do my usual checkover, make sure she's ready to go.

Man, Nice air bags on that one!!

I talk it over with Travis, and we decide take her.

Bryan agrees, and we step back into his office for some final deliberation.

The deal is done. For the price of $1300, we can have her.

ONWARD I say! She likes it rough!

We decide it's time to bring her home for the show to begin!

She met Travis's girl there....

The passionate stare shared between them spoke volumes to us about how good of time we all were going to have!

Wow, this thing totally doubled it's value overnight....

First off, the dumb sales dude was uninformed about the Power Shift feature, thus thinking the car had a bad transmission. It really shifts great! We did have one problem of it neutraling out on a very hard downshift though.

The car had 170lbs of compression on all 4 cylinders, but it still ran like crap.

We took it for a spin the other night in all of it's all-wheel-drive glory. That was when the GSX informed us that travis had purchased a plane rather than a car.

Many successful flights and bounce landings were commenced throughout the evening, and a splashdown was performed at the local car-wash. Heck, Travis even drove it to his first day of class. And I protected it from deer.

Last night, I polished the entire blue section of the paint, and the black roof. Shinyness was evoked (as much as possible for a car as old as travis). Travis went to bang the GF, and I worked on the car. It now has a boost gauge.

I also spent an hour or so tracking down the electrical problem causing it to run like butt. Broken wire to the TPS. That was it. Starts up instantly now, idles correctly, and holy god it is much faster.

The faded and scratched stripes have been re-applied. Wal-mart style, yo! They lookin good.
 
So Travis wanted to drive the car on Friday night....

There it sits, in the cold dark garage, missing an exhaust, missing a catalytic converter, uninspected, and looking hopeless....

2:30 comes around, and I take off work.

Get home, rip off the window stickers, and slap one of the cougar's plates on it.

Haul balls over to Sexon Muffler off 40hwy to see my good friend Rick.

Rick makes the car sound like a stampeed of pretty things.

But I'm not done yet. It's like 4:45, and I have to be at college in the burg at 6....

I take the car up to the dealership where my good buddy gets it inspected for me. Talk to one of the local big-name street racer guys while I'm there.

Out the door at 5:15.

Boostin back to the CV shack.

Find out where my class is, and where to park (I had no idea).

Piss off a 95 cobra.

Lose him in traffic for a good 15 minutes...

See him again just past lone jack. Three highschool kids.

We had some fun.

His bumper still looked pretty from two cars back.

Keep rollin to the burg.

Get to class, like 7 minutes late.

Pimp 'em if ya got 'em.

Almost go of on Linux Fanboi.

He needs to eat some sausage.

Anyway, get out at 10 because of Fanboi.

Get my Mc'cy D's #5. Drivethru chick wanted me. Tastyful.

Stop at wally world to get some polish rags.

See the cutest Emo couple and am like "Aweee"

Get home, tell Travis to stay away from cookie monster!

Re-polish the entire car.

Wash all of the remaining polish off.

Wax that sucker!

Holy god it's shiny now O_O

And Travis has the ppwk to get a temp tag.
