He can have my fingerprints then if hes that good.

Me and my bro did some night shooting. Imagine how powerful lights reveal how dirty my car is.

Best shot is alittle... youll see, still getting used to new cameras controls.

 

I'll take your fingers.

 

Hahaha I like that

 

Least he don't want your *****............

 

Well that would be unpleasant.

I dont know if you saw my post a week or two back, I picked up a donor car since ill be doing an auto to manual swap. My automatic trans is strange, some days it wont down shift, some days it takes a few tries to get in reverse, some days it works fine, and some days it downshifts all wonky. Im fed up with it and want the fun of a 5 spd. I pulled the engine of the 98 SW2 and decided to keep it incase mine blew up, so I would have something to go to temporarily. ill be posting more and more pictures as the build goes on, hopefully new trans should be in within the next two weeks, before I start school.
Enough of my rambling, to the pictures.

before the engine was ripped out

some gutting of the insides

Starting to pull the engine

Engine out


Pulled off trans. They said clutch was new but it was shot - Looks like they might not have resurfaced the flywheel.

Basically done with the donor car.

 

are you really holding up the back end with a cooler?

which guy are you? the one getting his hands dirty or the one pointing?

 

Yes, the cooler is my newest jackstand. lol not really i backed it up on ramps. niether one of them is me, The one on the left pointing has never done something like this before and the one on the right owns the engine lift, so I backed off and let him chain it up properly. I got my hands dirty doing everything else though.

 

OMG, I am simply horrified thinking how UNSAFE it is using a cooler to hold up the back of your station wagon.
When there are SO much safer ways to do things.
For Shame!

 

Can think of cooler ways.

 

Hahaha
