It's the day that the recruiter can meet me without our schedules clashing.


I'd come home to a stripped frame.



I think I might just let my dad drive it every once in a while just to keep it fresh.

Ben tisk tisk tisk.... Our cars dont have frames

I used to drive my DD more than the Z when I first got the car. Then I decided it was way more fun and cooler to drive the Z. So start driving yours.

Makes perfect sense, lol.

It might be too late, but if things go as planned and I'm looking to change my car's look or trade it in early next year for a 370Z or something, Nick has dibs on my sides and rear, and I guess you have my front. Dunno if I want to trade it, though. Too much time, money, and effort has gone into it. Might just keep it, have it paid off, then look into boosting it.

I'd like to have a new car, but I like the idea of getting rid of my car payment too much to give it up easily.

Always when I'm not around.


Just to give you and anyone else a heads up, I may be down the first week of June for MEPS. Since I'm down there, might as well meet up with some of you for dinner or something.

Alright I have all the footage downloaded on a external HD. I really don't want to put it on you tube, but if you guys want I will. I would like to download it to disc, after I bring it down to 4-5 GB. Let me know what you guys think after all it's your car's.
