This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I've had my share in the past,

    But they don't mess with me anymore: I've got the biggest snowthrower on the block:blast:

    We had about 30" of snow last March, and a buddy and I did all the sidewalks on our block(well up to the jerks houses anyway), for two days.

    I am still getting pies, cookies, cards, etc.:grin:

    From all the little old ladies, no less!:laugh:

    MMMMMM, this fresh apple pie is sure tasty!:moonu: (for the jerks of the world)

    Chris: I think we should all do that to the dumba$$ neighbors of the world:TU:
    I just ain't got the cojones:beer

    I probably wouldn't do it today as I wouldn't want my rugrats to see me hauled off. I also recommend that nobody breaks the law or does anything stupid. I was a twenty something at the time that was pretty responsible and always tried to be a great neighbor and respectful to non car wrenchers. But when he couldn't resist waving it in my face one last time I just said "what the f@#&!"

    At the time it solved two problems: get back at the jerk and get rid of a fragged engine right before moving day. I rationalized that it was saving me a trip to the scrapman.

    Did I mention that it felt really good after I did it?

    a guy i know gave his son a very clean 2 year old for ford ranger for graduation last year.
    over th summer the kid moved to moms house in order to be closer to college.
    she lives in "Loch Lloyd" in belton missouri. a very high scale gated housing development on a golf course (th pga and senior pga has had a couple tournys there).

    they dont allow puck-up trucks to be parked outside overnight. so before the sun goes down each day, the ranger goes in the garage and her lexxus is now in the driveway.

    Wow - I knew I was lucky; just didn't realize how so 'til reading this thread. I live in the middle of town and give the neighbors every right to complain, but no one ever has.

    There's always crap around my place. I bet a solid eight months out of the year there's either a parts car I'm tearing down or a derby car or two sitting in the driveway. My car trailer sets on the street the whole summer, sometimes weeks at a time without moving. No one has ever said a word in the five years I've lived here.

    I have great neighbors fthough. That really helps. The lot straight across is empty, the houses on either side of it have guys who enjoy hangin' out & helping on whatever wreck is here at the time. Outside of them are a dirt-track racer & an off-roader. The guy to my left is afraid of me & on the other side are college-age renters.

    We really should not talk about thing like spraying skunk pee in to the persons AC when they are not home. Making the house and everything in it smell fantastic, to another skunk.

    Scott,
    I drove the Skylark up to Dave's house, and haven't been around for 3 days. I needed a little bit of cooling off time from my neighbors.......

    As for the plans, thanks, but I would really,......... really have to modify my house. You know, I could tell Shari I need a bigger garage so she could park in it. That way when I show her your plans, we would have to get a bigger lot.
    Better yet, how about me bringing my car over to your garage, since it looks like you could fit one more car in there. That way I wouldn't have to drive so far to get parts :grin:



    BTW, I got 18+ mpg on the trip. Can't believe how the 750 Q-Jet can get the car into the high 11's and still get great gas mileage.

    Wow, that's better than my 4.0 V6 Ranger usually does!!! It runs low 17's! :puzzled:

    Did it load up much? Having followed you on the way to the track, it sure didn't like cruising with the big Holley on it!

    Maybe you should have run only the primaries on the QJ the last time you were at the track.

    gotbuick What, me worry?

    I could bring you some "corpses" for a lawn decoration. :grin:

    I think I should bring the yellow car up. Then sit out in front of your neighbor's on the trans-brake. Maybe do a few gnarly launches. :eek2:

    I can sympathize with the unsightly "car" neighbor. :laugh:
