I stood in front of my Rover. . . . and with my head on the hood thanked it and hugged it for being a 4wd. I'll be thanking it by getting the hedders done soon.

This weekend was s*** for me entire weekend working on the headers of my '03 Impala it sucked because its a front wheel drive but finally got it done and freaking sounds sweet can't wait for my truck to get the new hedders in.. . . .yay!

His license had exp. He was going to use his friends. There were 3 other cars/truck ahead of me. He told me last week it would have been fixed. I'm in no rush, he's not charging shop storage fee.

The state gave me $600 towards the repairs.

Got my new front drive shaft delivered and picked up some new nylock nuts for the D/S bolts at Fastenal. Hopefully get it on tomorrow.
