God d***ed mother f***ing LWB--white smoke

[Ron]

White smoke. Ugh. Not my fault as was loaned to another and overheated. Taking bets on dropped liner or blow head gasket. 2 to 1 are the odds in favor of the liner.

160k on the old girl.

I wonder how the lotus will do in the snow . . . .

Ron

PS last 5k miles: new water pump, blown upper rad hose, new alternator, full major service, new tires, new windscreen, cha ching.

 

[sven]

You know I could dispose of that LWB for you....

 

[Michael Slade]

Part it out.

Dibs on the rear view mirror and passenger seat switch!

 

[Ron]

PM me offers. Sven, you interested. If I had time to part out I would have time to fix her.

 

[Drillbit]

where do you live?

 

[Ron]

near philly

 

[p m]

Ron, I absolutely feel your pain. That's how I lost the 89.

 

[ptschram]

Sounds like time to ship those 110s to me so you can have a winter truck.

 

[Ron]

The 110 might be ready by spring if I shipped it to you now . . . .


I have a 4.6 in the closet. If my contractor gets my garage up I can put that in if it is a dropped liner.

 

[ptschram]

The 110 might be ready by spring if I shipped it to you now . . . .

Assuming I survive pneumonia.

 

[Ron]

You will.

Smoke menthols.

 

[robertf]

I feel your pain. Nothing like having to do a job twice only to confirm the worst case scenario

 

[DiscoveryXD]

you let someone borrow your truck and now the motor is junk?


sounds like a good reason for an ass beating to me....

 

[Ron]

"sounds like a good reason for an ass beating to me...."

More like an ass slapping as it was the girl . . . not really her fault, the LWB poored out all the coolant from the upper hose.

ok, gotcha... I thought you lent it out to a friend and they trashed your engine.

 

[Arthur 1995 LWB]

Real sorry to hear, Ron. Thought you had sold it. My truck is doing a lot of sitting around now as I bought a used Saab conv to do the commute. Probably just a tad bit better than the Lotus in the snow. If you need a hand with your truck, let me know.

 

[ptschram]

You will.

Smoke menthols.

You and Pendy

I quit smoking and almost immediately got sick. Both of my doctors are telling me I'll feel better some day. It's been five weeks since I've felt like I was alive!
