Glad you got your car back together! :congrats I'm sure that's a more reliable solution than that hot-rod carbureted setup you considering.

I bought the smallest engine hoist they had, :smackface its still way large for what I'm doing, not only does it not fit under my low car its massive.
Maybe somebody makes a mini engine hoist for ride-on lawnmowers or something. :rofl

Ok so lets get an update here because some things have gone on over the last bit. So my engine has been in the shop for a little bit now, the cylinders got bored out to clean up the damage done from the broken pistons. I took my crank in to be cleaned up and get bearings fitted. The work should be done soon but the crank guy was on vacation. It has been very hot the last few weeks and the heat plus the million rock chips cracked my window so a call to safe lite glass a guy came out and told me I could not have a window installed due to some rust, so I welded up the holes fixed it all up and got a new window installed. The welding however warped the window frame and it whistles on the free way where the door closes. Bit of foam to bump out the weather strip and we are back rolling quiet. Another thing I did was restore all the body work on the car, new bumper paint refresh the headlights and a new red fender to match the red car. Looks a ton better. So while I was doing all this fixing I was driving the peace geo for a few days in the 120° heat, pretty much sucked. And on the last day of my fix update the geo blew a hose and I limped the car the last 2 miles home on a 118° day doin some pulse glide the heat was under control. Good ol peace geo.

Wow, that looks so much nicer with the color-matched fender, and without the Swiss-cheese paint on the bumper.

Sucks that you had to drive without A/C for a while, especially over the last few weeks. I'd honestly rather ride my bike home from work than have to get in a car that's sat in the sun all day. I know you live a little far from work to do that. ;) At least it's white?

New phone? The pictures look a lot better. It's not a Windows phone, is it? :-/
