Tonight and tomorrow, I'll see if I can make this crap into a new rear mount.
 
Sweet man.
Are you going to have to shave the pucks down a little bit to get them to fit, or do they slide in perfect?
 
Andrew - They slide in with less than 1mm of clearance. I'm probly gonna put some of this polyurethane sealer around the edge to make it snug, but they do fit very tight as it is.

TM - AK style mota mountz. Hellz yeah :)fuckyou: Hasport)

Terrible News:
As I was nearing completion on the mount, my dad comes over for his usual bitch fest about how I don't "pitch in" even though I've been buying fuel to heat the garage ALL FUCKING WINTER. So he tells me that now he wants $250/month for the use of 1/2 of his tiny little shit garage. I told him I couldn't afford to pay him that much. He says, "Oh, you can afford to buy parts for your car but you can't give me any money for my garage?"
I said yes, that's right, If I give you money for the garage, I won't be able to buy the things I need for my car, so I wouldn't very well need to use your garage now would I?
So he tells me if I can't pay then I need to get out of his garage, apparently he'd rather have an empty garage that he uses to store his scrap, then let his son use it to actually be productive.
Long story short, Instead of spending today finishing the motor mount, I spent it clearing all my parts out of the garage, and pushing the car into the trees. I have to get all my shit off of his property in one month, or he'll start charging me a storage fee.
I know this story kind of makes my dad seem like a selfish prick asshole, but the truth is, he's much worse. He cheated on my mother and destroyed his family of six children. Just wanted to put that out there cuz I'm feeling a lot of hatred towards that piece of shit right now.
The civic project is postponed indefinitely. I'm going to be atttempting to buy some property this summer, so it's possible that the car will be finished, just not anytime soon.

Regards,
Cliff
 
Yeah, I'm tryin to cool off, but I almost punched that prick in the face. Oh well, more motivation to get my own garage.
 
damn man. sorry to hear that!

Do you have any property that you can use to build a garage on?
friends places? convince your dad after a cooloff period to let you build a small garage?
 
WOW, HE DOES SOUND LIKE A TRUE PRICK:eek:

PLEASE DONT LET HIM DESTROY ALL THE HARD WORK YOU HAVE DONE ALREADY

FYI: I PUNCHED MY DAD IN THE MOUTH WHEN I WAS 19

SINCE THEN I GOT MUCH MORE RESPECT FROM HIM;)

I WANT TO SEE THIS SUPER SLEEPER FINISHED JUST AS MUCH AS YOU:D
