Time to Start? Oh Yeah!

[FieroBUZZ]

Well, my friendly mailman brought something for me yesterday.

An invitation from big brother to get my e-test done by the last week of April.  

Guess that is the sign that it's time to start putting that new motor in.  

[JetJumper]

maybe if the car sits for long enough I won't have to do it!!!      But I want it runnning!!!! GRRR!!!

Oh well...I am still wanting warmer weather

Look at the bright side we early years are nearing exemptions, next year the 84's are good to go. So at most you'll only have to pay $200 plus all the testing fee's, pricks

  I should be getting mine soon, three more years and I will be exempt from it. Rant OnDang tax grab is what it is, I already have to pay $160 for my licence plates, now I will end up in the worst case spending an additional $550 on both cars to have that e-test done and get this, if I get a conditional pass neither of the two cars will be any cleaner. It is I who am out the almost $800 for the necessity of having two cars.Rant Off

Already had the Focus go through it, Achieva still needs to Van, Fiero and Lincolnaren't on the road so no worries.

By the way anyone want a Ford Aerostar.

[FieroDough]

I remember that aerostar! (hides in fear of being devowerd by the rust bunnies)




I have internet access again!!! Woohooo!

Yip had to retire it simply out of self respect, no one should be allowed to drive such a vehicle, there really should of been an intervention at some point, but on the other hand came in great for hauling a last miniute engine hoist across country.

There not so bad if my 84 passed with flying colours most will past there a few thing one should  do before the test
