Sorry I couldn't figure out exactly where this needed to go SO I thought I would just post here and ask if a Admin/Mod would kindly move it where it's should be!
Just sayin, Hi! again:
Well, I am kind of excited as I bought my '94 Dodge Stealth R/T TT w/ 6 speed back. (STILL unmolested!! and with less than 100 miles put on it since I sold it 2 years ago!!)
Back in the fall of '05 I blew up my Stealth's engine messing around ... (I'll leave it at that)
Now I wasn't TOO upset as I had just replace the Stealth with my new baby ... A '06 Saleen Superchared Convertible Mustang ....
Our Stealth sits for 3 years, almost exactly how I towed it into our garage.
Then one summer day I had had enough and knew this car need to get back on the road... So, I sold it back 2 years ago to a young friend. With in a few days he finds a COMPLTETE stock twin turbo engine out of a wrecked car, paid to have a shop install the 'new' engine. He is one happy camper because he is the proud owner of a complete turn key '94 Stealth R/T TT completely stock.
The VERY next day I get a call from him .... He blew up the engine!! (seems he missed a few shifts while punching out in it and one thing lead to another next thing you know he has a rod sticking through the block. (He's NOT happy NOW!)
So the car sits again ... this time in a hanger ... For 2 more years ...
This summer I'm having a few beers with the guy and I ask IF he still has my old Stealth? He gives me 'the look'! I ask if he wanted to sell it? He tells me he will sale it back to me for what I sold it to him for ... BUT I get all the new parts he has with it. (new block, new crank, new rods, new pistons, new bearings, new gasket kit, (all unassymbeled) 2 more stock turbos, and 2 complete intake to oil pan, but windowed, engines)
When I get the title, I see the car is STILL in my name!! I asked him about it, and he just laughed and said, "Hey, I blew it up before I made it to DMV!"
Engine parts are at the shop getting assymbled and back in the car right now! (look like it'll be a few weeks but that's fine!)
Funniest thing is, I just went out to the shed and found my studded winter tires and rims ... I knew I was saving those for a reason!
The Stealth will NOT stay unmolested this time around ... A friend has a '07 WRX STi with CAI, down pipe, boost controller, and Cobb tuner .... Can't let the scooby have ALL the fun this winter!!
