So I bought my dad a 2008 Colorado. 59,000 miles. It's scratched and dinged but not bad overall. I am on the look out for the following.

I booked a room for Friday night and Saturday night. The 24th and 25th. It looks like it will be the following people

Mike Sutter
Jay Sutter
Matt Sutter
Alex Sutter

it's up to you. Make an offer......

My Dad, my brother (Jay), Alex and myself will be there Wednesday evening to Saturday morning. Drive up Wednesday and drive back Saturday. I think Jay will be driving a black fox body to try and sell it.

I will be flipping it. So I don't want to put too much $ in it.

engine is all buttoned up. engine bay is all pressure washed. Tomorrow to drop the transmission and replace all the seals before re-assembly begins.

I am looking at flights. What time is everyone planning on arriving and planning on leaving? Thank you.

It's been so cold here I have not wanted to go in the garage and work on the engine. Well today was in the 50's. So I installed the main caps, plastigauged them and re-installed/torqued them. They measrued 0.002" - 0.003" within spec. I also installed all the new rings, piston and connecti...

Should I seal the engine back up before degreasing it and pressure washing it ? I don’t think I care that I get some water in it sin...

Tonight I felt motived and a little irritated because I didn’t get the engine out Saturday. So I removed the2 motor mount bolts and extracted it from the engine bay.

So on Saturday I was removing the engine by myself, which isn’t too bad but it’s always nice to have company. Well as I was taking out the last 2 bolts my hand slipped and I sliced my arm open. 10 stitches later........

I was going to send you mine but my 79 doesn't have cruise.
