Default '04 back on the road

I finally have my '04 back on the road its been tooooooo long. like a year and a 1/2. brand new motor with less than 200 miles on her.


I drove it an hour home yesterday, then spent 2 hours cleaning her up, then took her out for a sunday night cruise.

Roanoke, va has a HUUUUUGE cruise every year. upwards of 80,000 people attend annulay, and it is later this month. im happy i got my car in time!!!









Then this morning on the way to work, i blew a coolant hose....****[:@]

about a year and a half ago, i had a wrist pin go bad. it cause the piston to flap around in the cylinder, damaging the block beyond repair. So i just bought a whole new crate motor from ford. its the exact same as what was in there before. but with a wrranty. lol


it took so long to get it back cause of my dad. but thats a totally different story.
