Post by: 84 Fila on October 01, 2006, 05:34:29 PM
Yesterday, I got the new harness from John in and now the Fila starts. Loud as hell and still with some little issues but it's mostly done. Got a new cd player in it also. Pics soon, maybe even a video of her running....

Thanks Chuck. I have to give half of the credit to my newfound brother John though. Without his help and parts I could have never done this

congrats, man after it gets up and going make a few passes up and down your street. if your neigbors like you they will just pass it off as "that crazy white kid" or if they hate you well then you can piss them off a little more. Maybe not a good idea for you cause of the attack  on your car.

The plan is on saturday use the set of "sacrafice" tires up to honor the car gods for helping me with the car. Nothing like a few good burnouts to make the  thing worth it
