So I know I haven't posted much of anything lately. That has a lot to do with not having anything to really share. Reason being things are not going well in the old wallet these days and my Formula is still unregistered because I haven't been able to come up with the approximately $500 it's going to take to replace the catalytic converter and get the registration renewed.
FYI, the good state of Arizona charges $8 for the first past due month then an additional $4 for each subsequent month the registration is is late. So if I can't get it registered for a year it could cost me the original $30 plus an additional $52.
The El Camino needed attention too and I ended up manually doing a 4 tire rotation (5 with the spare) and some brake work. Brake work that came about because of the brakes getting noisier and a slight pull to the right on applying them. Nothing worth a video and still not quite right but passable.
So now I have two half-assed cars...
So when money's tight bad things tend to happen and one of them is in the video below. My water main broke leaving me on the hook for $575 to get it fixed.
Needless to say I'm on the payment plan. A BALLOON payment plan that's seriously cutting into the whole food and shelter thing.
But this too shall pass and someday soon I'll be back wrenching on the Formula again in hopes of getting that bad bird back on the boulevard....(see what I did there...lol)
For now here's a little slice of a day in the life of elcaminoguy....
