[DMCForum] Re: Bells, whistles and minor convenience items (Farrar)



Lol,

Farrar I love you like the brother I never had but I don't think
you've been reading my posts for the last year and 8 months.

Those where the -convenience- items that didn't work.

I didn't list the other major items that were totally ruined like:

The crumple tube and forward frame box-in
Main wiring harness hacked into
Entire fuel system trashed
blown head gaskets
shot-out rear wheel bearings
siezed brakes
Every electrical, wire wound device: (alternator, idle reg, window
motors, engine fans, ventilator fan) siezed solid
cracked windshield
torn seats
cracked dash
faded vinyl

Shall I stop here? There's more.
