Got my ride back home!!!!

Post by **UncleBen** » Tue Oct 14, 2003 4:24 pm

She is FINALLY fixed, painted, etc etc and home again!!! It felt amazing to get behind the wheel again tonight, after more than 2 months without her. All the small things that I need to fix just left my mind totally as I drove down the road in 4th gear, just cruisin at like 2500. Ahhhhh sooooo sweet sounding!! I will try and get some pics up with the new paint, '96 grille, etc. It looks AWESOME!

Dude... I love you dude.

Glad to hear the good news about the 240. I know how it is to be without your baby for an extended period of time, and when you get back its like BOOYA ---> then you need to pull a change-a-roo on the boxers-Kev

^^^ Thanks Kev, you rule.

Fred, I checked it and thanks alot for the heads up. I emailed my buddy about it already. I think I emailed the right guy. All I know is I emailed a friend who was wanting a 240, there are just so many of them. lol

Matt, but just think how much different your car will be when you actually do get to drive it. Mine is the same ole car, just new paint, and a non-crinkled front end

But yes, it feels awesome! Went and got her a new air-freshener tonight too:D

I haven't really taken any pics yet, heh. I'm surprised at myself for not taking any yet. But, I will, soon. Have no fear.

White Diamond (pearl white). It is indeed the 255hp 3.6 liter and it moves out pretty well. I have not had the chance to run a G35 sedan yet, but that would be interesting.

PICS, Ben, PICS...

Pics Ben, Pics!

Congratulations man, I went two weeks without my car once, I can't even imagine what two months must feel like. And wow, 7 months for J-Spec.... ouch.

that's sweet you finally got your car back. I got mine back tuesday night, the battery went dead, so went and bought a battery wednesday after school and now it's running great. I'm very happy with the newly rebuilt motor. I Haven't taken it above 3500, as i won't for 2k miles, but I can tell it is quicker.
