Trying to pick up where we left off. If you loved the Albuquerque Stripper, you'll love the Macho Man NV Salvage, oh yeah. No secrets, we're going to do it right in-front of your eyes, oh yeah.
Chapters. Sure, why not?

Once a Stripper, always a Stripper...
So, not entirely related to things, I killed my transmission this previous weekend. Wah wah, nobody cares.
However, and this is where we turn this around on you, get your TSB's taken care of, if you haven't already. The MT82-D4 is garbage, and Ford knows and knew about it, and for those with...
Curious, but how many of you are out there?
I caught fire, and while I'm no forensic fireman, the fuel line melted/snapped at the direct injection pump, catching the passenger head on fire, and the upper coolant hose melted at the firewall/evap core.
So, that sucked. Recently, somebody...
Yanking my burnt motor out, and trying to find one of those mega tall 6 ton jackstands that go like 24-28 inches up. I can't seem to find any locally, all of them are out of stock, I'm guessing as part of the big jackstand recalls that HF had last year. Still today, the only ones you can...

Tuning up for the upcoming weekend's NASA race and met up with some Spec Corvette guys on a nice, cool Saturday morning with Speed Ventures at Auto Club Speedway.
Condition does not matter, headlight clips can be broken, cheaper the better. I'm playing with fiberglassing, so whatever cuts, dents, scrapes, and whatnot can be fixed. I'm all around the SoCal tracks, so can work out grabbing it whenever, shipping would totally kill the deal with them being...
Sharing this for those of you who may eventually find yourself in this situation, where you need to replace a starter.

The GR3Z-11002-A is Motorcraft SA-1067, which has three holes in it.
The Ecoboost starter motor is half...
Do you like to drive over 140mph? Who doesn't?
If you said something along the lines of hell yeah, come on down to Auto Club Speedway and knock some dust off on the Roval.
3 Straightaways? Check.
20+ Turns? Yup.
High banking turns? You got it, friend.
Want to see the Albuquerque Stripper fall...
TL;DR: We came, we saw, we conquered. It was one hell of a run.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I bring you the project and story of the Albuquerque Stripper.
First time here? Can't believe this thread's so long that it needs an index or chapters.
What it's like to purchase a salvage car from Copart...
